Abstract:
Lobulated intradermal nevus is an unusual form of regressing melanocytic nevus. Clinically, it shows a lobulated plaque and biopsy specimens display fatty infiltration within nests of nevus cells, dermal fibrosis and neuroid differentiation of nevus cells. We report a case of lobulated intradermal nevus resembling linear epidermal nevus in a 45-year-old female patient.
