Abstract:
Becker nevus syndrome is a phenotype characterized by the presence of a Becker nevus in association with unilateral hypoplasia of the breast or other cutaneous, muscular or skeletal defects. We report an interesting case of Becker's nevus syndrome associated with fibrous dysplasia of the sphenoid bone, tooth abnormalities and facial asymmetry.
