Sebaceoma, also known as a sebaceous epithelioma, is a cutaneous condition that appears as a yellow or orange papule.

== Signs and symptoms == Sebaceoma is a smooth-bordered, plump, well-circumscribed benign tumor that may expand into the subcutis, middle dermis, and deep dermis. Lesions range in size from tiny lesions to 20 mm. Clinically, the tumor appears as a single flesh-colored or erythematous nodule or plaque in the head and neck region. It is seldom seen in other body locations. It can also occasionally become crusted or erosive.
