Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Histopathology

Background:

  • Colloid milium is a rare cutaneous deposit disease.
  • It typically manifests as yellowish, translucent papules or plaques on sun-exposed skin.

Observation:

  • A 52-year-old man presented with a nodule on his upper lip.
  • The lesion was initially misdiagnosed and treated as a keloid.

Findings:

  • Histological examination is crucial for diagnosing colloid milium.
  • The characteristic finding is the presence of colloid within the dermal papillae.

Implications:

  • Accurate diagnosis of colloid milium is essential to avoid incorrect treatments.
  • This case underscores the importance of considering rare dermatological conditions in differential diagnoses.
