[Cutaneous cysts and cystic skin tumors].
    Der Hautarzt; Zeitschrift fur Dermatologie, Venerologie, und verwandte Gebiete, 1979, Volume: 30, Issue:5

    The nomenclature and pathogenesis of cutaneous cysts is discussed along the lines of their pathological properties. On the basis of histological and experimental evidence it is concluded that most cysts represent benign neoplasms derived from pluripotential cells.

Cytokeratin expression in pilonidal sinus.
    The British journal of dermatology, 2002, Volume: 146, Issue:3

    Pilonidal sinus (PS) is considered to belong in the category of follicular occlusion diseases (acne triad).. The aim of our study was to elucidate the pathogenesis of PS by evaluating its cytokeratin (CK) expression.. CK expression in nine cases of PS was studied immunohistochemically using six antikeratin antibodies.. Infundibular-like epithelium contained CK1, 10 and 14 similar to normal infundibulum, but it did not contain CK17. In non-infundibular-like epithelium, CK14, 16 and 17 were detected similar to that in normal outer root sheath. CK expression in PS was similar to that in hidradenitis suppurativa, suggesting that sinus epithelium may be fragile, hyperproliferative and undifferentiated.. PS can be classified in the same entity as follicular occlusion diseases based on CK expression.

Histology of chronic pilonidal sinus.
    APMIS : acta pathologica, microbiologica, et immunologica Scandinavica, 1995, Volume: 103, Issue:4

    Many theories concerning the development of chronic pilonidal sinus have been proposed. A histologic study of primary pilonidal sinus in 53 patients is presented. Subcutaneous tissue contained sinuses surrounded by chronic inflammation. Hair in sinuses was found in three quarters of the specimens examined. Examination showed that hair entered via one of the sinus openings created. Pits (defined as darker spots of varying width in the midline of the internatal cleft) were found to be indentations of the skin containing keratin plugs and debris. They may be isolated or connected with hair follicles. Pilonidal sinuses are chronic inflammatory processes of the skin caused by keratin plugs and debris clinically observed as pits, having penetrated the dermis.
