Deskripsi

Nevi are hamartomatous growth of skin or mucosa that usually present at the time of birth or soon after. Nevus sebaceous (NS) is an epidermal nevus comprised predominantly of sebaceous glands. It presents at the time of birth, as yellow-tan-colored plaque, which usually remains constant till puberty and thereafter it increases in size due to the hormonal influence on sebaceous glands. Here, we are reporting a case of giant cerebriform NS of Jadassohn in a 2-month-old male child. Such giant and cerebriform appearance of NS is rarely seen.
