Pigmented hidrocystoma of nasal epithelium (PHONE): report of a man with a pigmented hidrocystoma of his nose and literature review.

CONCLUSION: Pigmented hidrocystomas may be mistaken for other skin lesions, such as a pigmented basal cell carcinoma and melanoma. A biopsy readily establishes the diagnosis. We respectfully suggest that a hidrocystoma located on the nose that is pigmented be referred to as a PHONE: pigmented hidrocystoma of the nasal epithelium.
