Teledermatology is the delivery of dermatologic health care to remote locations by means of telecommunications and information technology. It facilitates delivery of services by a dermatologist at a different time and place than the patient who receives them. Both real-time videoconferences and store-and-forward systems have proven to be highly reliable and accurate in teledermatologic diagnosis compared to traditional face-to-face diagnosis.

How would you manage multiple epidermal cysts?

Proliferation of epidermal cells within a circumscribed space of the dermis gives rise to epidermal or epidermoid cysts. Epidermoid cysts of the genitals are common in the general population and may appear as a mass in the breast, the vulva, the clitoris, the penis, the scrotum, or the perineum. This young man developed multiple epidermoid cysts on the scrotum over several years. What should be the line of management in this case?

I had one such patient with multiple epidermoid scrotal cysts associated with milia on the upper cheeks. How are these two conditions related with each other?
