Abstract
|
|
|
Nevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis is a very rare skin disease, which usually is present at birth. The lesion shows groups of asymptomatic soft papules or nodules, which have a smooth or folded surface and are skin colored or yellowish. The area of predilection is the pelvic girdle -(especially the buttock and sacrococcygeal areas). Microscopically, nevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis reveals groups of ectopic fat cell nests within the dermis. Only one case was reported in Korea (1969).
The authors observed a case of typical nevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis. The patient was 19 year-old male, who have had asymptomatic soft papules- and nodules on the buttock, lower back and scalp since 14 years of his age. Routine laboratory findings were within normal limit. Histopathological findings showed ectopic fat cell nests within mid and lower dermis (Fig. 3)
Diagnosis was confirmed by clinical and histopathological findings. Literature was briefly reviewed for the discussion.
