Abstract:
Unilateral nevoid telangiectasia was first described by Blaschko in 1899. Since then there have been fewer than 100 reported cases. This rarely reported disorder consists of multiple telangiectasias primarily located unilaterally in the C3-T1 dermatomes. We describe unilateral nevoid telangiectasia in 13-year-old boy with association with increased estrogen level in puberty.
