【 摘 要 】

The association of Blaschko lines with genetic mosaicism has lead to the concept that this pattern represents the manifestation of genetically abnormal skin tissue contrasting with the genetically normal skin. Various mosaic defects affecting not only the skin but also extracutaneous tissues have lead to the description of different types of epidermal nevus syndromes. We present a further case of an unusual organoid epidermal nevus characterized by depigmented hypertrichosis.
