Sebaceous Naevus Located in Nasal Cavity – A Unique Case
Journal Title: Nasza Dermatologia Online - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Sebaceous naevi are congenital hamartomas comprising of sebaceous glands. They usually present at birth or may appear later as single lesion. The morphology of the lesion changes around puberty when it becomes thickened and nodular. Sebaceous naevus has definite potential for malignant transformation in later life therefore prophylactic surgical excision is recommended in childhood. The common sites of occurrence of naevus sebaceus are scalp and face. Involvement of mucus membrane is extremely rare in naevus sebaceous. We report this unusual case of naevus sebaceous located in nasal cavity involving nasal mucosa.
