[Inflammatory variable epidermal naevus (atypical I.L.V.E.N.? A new entity?) (author's transl)]. 1979

A P Baptista, and J M Cortesao

The authors report a case of two sisters, having one of them left hemiatrophy, with congenital verrucose lesions, in plaques and lineary, bilateral, in extremities, presenting bouts of inflammatory extensive evolution (mostly on the atrophic side), with spontaneous resolution. Histologically the lesions match with those of Nevil's. The authors discuss the nosologic data with that of Nevil's, with epidermic nevus of Solomon and with variable erythrokeratodermis.
