    A 49-year-old woman presented with a 20-year history of multiple skin-colored papules and nodules on the right vulva and groin.

    Initial biopsy findings suggested sebaceous hyperplasia, highlighting the importance of adequate sampling for accurate diagnosis of FSCH.

    Histopathological examination revealed characteristic features of FSCH, including cystically dilated structures and mature sebaceous lobules.
