Congenital Becker’s nevus: report of a rare case

Beckers’s nevus is a cutaneous hamartoma which usually appears as a circumscribed hyperpigmentation with hypertrichosis. It usually presents unilaterally and the usual site is shoulder and scapula. It is rarely congenital and it is usually noticed first during adolescence.

  Herein, we report a congenital bilateral large Becker’s nevus with positive familial history of Becker’s nevus. There were no associated anomalies in our patients.

Familial and bilateral cases of Becker’s nevus can present with no associated anomalies as “Becker’s syndrome”.
