    Author: Tong Y, Coda AB, Schneider JA, Hata TR, Cohen PR.
    Journal: Cureus; 2017 Aug 23; 9(8):e1596. PubMed ID: 29067220.
    Abstract:
    Familial multiple trichodiscomas is a condition characterized by multiple asymptomatic skin papules. The inheritance pattern has not been established. The skin lesions usually appear in childhood. The diagnosis of the cutaneous papules is established by pathologic evaluation. Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome is excluded by not detecting any aberration in the folliculin gene locus. Including our patient, 15 index individuals and their families are described. There is no systemic organ involvement or associated malignancies in individuals with this condition.
