Abstract

ABSTRACT This case report explores a rare manifestation of Becker’s nevus, where the patient exhibited an unusual dermatomal distribution featuring a hyperpigmented, irregular patch with associated hypertrichosis on the T4 segment. While Becker’s nevus is a well-known dermatological condition typically observed in the upper back region, instances of dermatomal distribution are exceptionally uncommon. This case presents a unique occurrence of segmental Becker’s nevus, highlighting the atypical presentation of this condition.
