Familial multiple trichoepithelioma associated with subclavian-pulmonary collateral vessels and cerebral...

A 63-year-old woman presented with cerebellar infarction caused by occlusion of the right posterior inferior cerebellar artery. She had papules on her face that were identified histologically as multiple trichoepithelioma. Angiography revealed right subclavian-pulmonary collateral vessels and a cerebral aneurysm arising from the bifurcation of the right middle cerebral artery. Her grandmother, mother, and uncle had had similar papules, and the deaths of her mother and uncle were due to subarachnoid hemorrhage.
