RESUMO
Nevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis(NLCS) is a rare nevoiri anomaly characterized by ectopic adipose tissue in the dermis without predilection. In this disease two clinical types are distinguished: The classic type consists of asymptomatic linear or zosteriform coliection of soft, flesh colored to yellowish, papules or nodules that often coalesce into plaque. It is usually located in the pelvic girdle and lumbar area but has been repeted on the abdomen, thorax, thigh, and scalp. The solitary form usually appears later in life and can occur at any site. There is no sexurl irredilection or hereditary trend. There are no assoeiated abnor malities. The authors experienced three cases of typical NLCS including thia silitary type that had several solitary nodules irregularly. The first case was a 24-year-old female which has had multiple, flesh to dark brown-colored, confluent nodules over the left upper thigh for 5-years. The second case is the solitary type that a 56-year-old female has had discrete bean sized to what sized nodules on the right buttock for 13-years. The third case was a 23-year-old female who had soft, yellowish skin colored, cerebriform tumor on the right buttock for 10-yesrs. Diagnos was confirmed by clinical and histopathologic findings.
