- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 65-year-old woman who developed skin-colored to gray papules on the internal surfaces of the end points of bilateral auricular canals over a 20-year period. It notes that the patient prompted a skin biopsy that demonstrated a well-formed cyst beneath the epidermis. It has been ruled out that the patient is inflicted with a rare benign epidermal tumor characterized by numerous tiny milia on an erythematous base called milia en plaque (MEP).
