Congenital melanocytic nevus of the oral mucosa: report of a rare pigmented lesion and review of the literature.

Oral pigmented lesions are uncommon and congenital melanocytic nevi are especially rare. We report a case of a patient with multiple congenital melanocytic nevi including a palatal lesion. This is reported to add to the scant literature that exists on this subject. Prognosis and management are discussed.
