Abstract
ABSTRACT
Nevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis (NLCS) is a rare idiopathic cutaneous
hamartoma characterized by ectopic clusters of mature adipose tissues in dermis. It
is classified into two types. Classical type presenting as multiple lesions with onset
at birth or within third decade of life and solitary type with onset between third to
sixth decade of life. Here we present a case of 45 years female with adult onset,
asymptomatic, grouped, skin colored, soft sessile growth in zosteriform pattern on
left buttock. We here intend to report rare case of classical Nevus Lipomatosus
Cutaneous Superficialis.
