          Abstract

          A síndrome de Brooke-Spiegler é uma doença autossômica dominante, caracterizada pelo aparecimento de neoplasias de anexos cutâneos, habitualmente tricoepiteliomas e cilindromas. Ocorre, em geral, na segunda e terceira décadas de vida. A histopatologia revela uma ampla gama de tumores, com diferenciação écrina, apócrina, folicular e sebácea. O tratamento pode ser feito por excisão cirúrgica, laser, crioterapia, eletrofulguração e dermabrasão. Em razão do risco de malignidade, há necessidade de um bom acompanhamento clínico e aconselhamento genético.

          Translated abstract

          Brooke-Spiegler syndrome is an autosomal dominant inherited disease with predisposition to cutaneous adnexal neoplasms, most commonly cylindromas and trichoepitheliomas. Its onset is in the second or third decades of life. The histopathological exams of the lesions revealed a plethora of benign adnexal neoplasms, showing apocrine, follicular, and sebaceous differentiation. The treatment can be performed by excisional surgery, laser, cryotherapy, electrofulguration and dermabrasion. Due to the risk of malignancy, there is the need for clinical follow-up and genetic counseling.

          Pedigree of multiple benign adnexal tumours of Brooke-Spiegler type.

          A pedigree of autosomal dominant expression of multiple benign adnexal tumours is presented. Seven cases spanning three generations are discussed. The clinical manifestations of these tumours are quite variable, including multiple papules concentrated on the face, scalp nodules and a large turban tumour. One member of the family had a linear papular eruption involving one half of his body. Histopathology of all lesions demonstrated benign adnexal characteristics, including well-characterized eccrine spiradenomas, trichoepitheliomas and an eccrine cylindroma. The cutaneous tumours occurring in these patients have continued to develop during their lifetimes. The authors propose that this pedigree has phenotypic characteristics consistent with Brooke-Spiegler syndrome.
