Folliculosebaceous cystic hamartoma. The abundant fibrous stroma with marked myxoid degeneration distinguishes it from a sebaceous trichofolliculoma.

I would call this sebaceous trichofolliculoma (end-stage tichofolliculoma) since there’s no adipose metaplasia in the stroma to merit the designation of folliculosebaceous cystic hamartoma. Anyway, I think we are talking about the very same entity which may manifest itself differently according to the phase of the hair follicle cycle. We've discussed this issue [url="https://dermpathpro.com/spot-diagnosis-1/_/2013-spot-diagnoses/may-2013/case-751-2nd-may-r774"]before[/url].
