- Abstract
Mucinous nevus is an exceptional entity and presents as flesh-colored to brownish papules or plaques, coalescing to form a pigmentary or verrucous lesion with either a blaschkoid, linear, grouped or zosteriform disposition. It usually appears at birth or during early childhood, but late onset has also been described. Mucinous nevus does not require additional work-up as no internal pathologies have been described. Abstention of any therapeutic intervention is usually preferred.
