Classification of multiple basaloid follicular hamartoma

Type Features
Inherited
 Familial multiple BFH Inherited as an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by multiple lesions on face, trunk and extremities
 Generalized BFH syndrome Inherited autosomal dominantly due to mutation in PTCH gene. Manifestations include generalized congenital or childhood onsed multiple BFH with multiple milia, comedo-like lesions, hypotrichosis, hypohidrosis, and palmar and/or plantar pits
Congenital
 Congenital generalized BFH Generalized BFH associated with alopecia and cystic fibrosis
Acquired
 Linear unilateral BFH Multiple grouped lesions in a band-like fashion along the lines of Blaschko. This form of BFH has been described with extensive trichoblastoma, Graves’ disease, congenital dorsal scoliosis and Happle-Tinschert syndrome
 Generalized BFH with associated anomalies Acquired generalized BFH may be associated with myasthenia gravis, alopecia and systemic lupus erythmatosus
 Generalized BFH without associated anomalies Multiple acquired BFH rarely occur sporadically
