Abstract

Nevus sebaceus is a rare congenital hamartoma with clinical and histopathological features that change with puberty. It has been associated with a number of secondary neoplasms, most of which are thought to derive from follicular germ cells. In this article, the authors describe a total of 3 cases of combined melanocytic nevus and nevus sebaceus to highlight this rare finding.
