Abstract:
The connective tissue nevus represents a hamartoma of various components of dermal connective tissue elements, predominantly collagen, elastin, or glycosa minoglycan. Zosterriform connective tissue nevus, described by Steiner, in 1944, clinically shows grouped papules in a zosteriform band without extracutaneous manifestations of family history, and peculiar histopathologic findings. We experienced 3 cases of typical zosteriforrn connective tissue nevus developed on the flank area of 30-year-old male and 21-year-old male, and on the inguinal area of 15-year-old female.
