A Case of Nevus Lipomatosus Cutaneous Superficialis on the Palm / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

Nevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis (NLCS) is an idiopathic hamartoma that manifests with ectopic adipose tissue in the dermis. This disease is most frequent located on the lower trunk and gluteal region. Although NLCS can affect any region of a skin, it has not been previously described in the palm in the Korean Dermatologic literature. Herein, we describe a patient with NLCS on the left palm and discuss this rare case. We also review the relevant medical literature.
