In the absence of at least moderate nuclear atypia, necrosis and frank invasion I would call this neoplasm a sebaceoma. Sebaceomas may exhibit frequent mitotic figures.

In contrast to the case of Dr Carr, I find this architecture and cytology consistent with Sebaceoma.

Agree, sebaceoma. Architecture and cytology appear low-grade.

White more than blue.Mature sebocytes more than germinative cells.Therefore ,I like to call it Sebaceus adenoma.

Agree with sebaceoma on this case. I like the abrupt transition from germinative to mature sebocytes and circumscript borders (I realise I am more benign than most). Would definitely consider Muir Torre.
