Abstract:
Nevus sebaceous, a cutaneous harmatoma histopathologically presenting epidermal and adnexal hyperplasia, is a congenital lesion that occurs primarily on the face, scalp, and neck area. It is rarely found on the trunk or extremities. We report a case of 34-year-old female with nevus sebaceous on the left forearm, which is considered to be a rare predilection.
