Abstract:
Phakomatosis pigmentovascularis is a neural crest disorder that is found almost exclusively in Asians. Type II is a syndrome in which extensive nevus flammeus is associated with persistent aberrant mongolian spots. We report a case of phakomatosis pigmentovascularis associated with congenital glaucoma in neonate.
