Abstract

Milia are small, white, benign keratinous cysts that are frequently encountered. Multiple eruptive milia are rare, and are characterized by the development of milia that are more extensive in number and distribution than would be expected in primary milia. We report a case of a 19-year-old girl with tiny, white papules in her axillae and on her abdomen with a review of the relevant literature.

Keywords: Multiple eruptive milia.
