Abstract

Treatment options are limited for classic nevus lipomatosus superficialis, in which clustered lesions present over a large area. We present a case of nevus lipomatosus superficialis that showed clinical and histological improvement after treatment with intralesional phosphatidylcholine and sodium deoxy-cholate.
