Abstract

Nevus Comedonicus (NC), also known as comedone nevus, is a rare type of epidermal nevus. It can be a part of the Nevus Comedonicus syndrome, a neurocutaneous disorder with ocular, skeletal and central nervous system symptoms. It is characterized by numerous dilated follicular openings with keratin plugs. Hereby, we report a case of Nevus Comedonicus.
