Abstract:
Although subtle, dermoscopic clues such as milia-like cysts, white structureless areas, and peripheral vessels may suggest a biphasic adnexal tumor. Histopathology remains essential for definitive diagnosis. Complete excision with clear margins is typically curative. Rare tumors like CS may benefit from AI-driven tools to improve preoperative recognition.

Papillary Dermis
The dermis might be considered the "core" of the integumentary system, as distinct from the epidermis and hypodermis.
