Bilateral congenital nevus of Ota in association with Mongolian spot
Authors
Abstract:
A 24-year-old woman presented with asymptomatic hyperpigmented bilateral patches on her temples, eyelids and forehead since birth. Furthermore, the patient had a congenital grey patch, compatible with Mongolian spot, on her buttock. She had no vascular or other cutaneous lesion. Histopathologic examination revealed bipolar dendritic melanocytes dispersed in a ribbon-like pattern between the collagen fibers and around the neurovascular bundles of the dermis. As far as we know, this is the first case of bilateral “congenital” nevus of Ota in association with a Mongolian spot reported in a patient.

Report of a case of Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome associated with bilateral nevus of Ota
Port-wine stain is a vascular malformation characterized pathologically by ectasia of superficial dermal capillaris and clinically by persistent macular erythema. The association of a port-wine stain on a limb with soft tissue swelling, with or without bony overgrowth, is termed klippel-Trenaunay syndrome. Phakomatosis pigmento-vascularis is a combination of port-wine stain and cutaneous ...

Phacomatosis pigmentovascularis is a rare, congenital condition characterized by a combination of cutaneous melanocytic lesions and vascular malformation. We discuss an entirely unique case of Phacomatosis pigmentovascularis with nevus of Ota, extensive Mongolian spot, nevus flammeus, nevus anemicus and cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita, which may represent a heretofore undescribed vari...

Ota's nevus is mongolian spot-like macular blue-black or gray-brown patchy pigmentation that most commonly occurs in areas innervated by the first and second division of the trigeminal nerve. Acquired, bilateral nevus of Ota-like macules (ABNOM) is located bilaterally on the face, appears later in life, is blue-brown or slate-gray in color. It is not accompanied by macules on the ocular and muc...

full textComparison of Characteristics of Acquired Bilateral Nevus of Ota-like Macules and Nevus of Ota According to Therapeutic Outcome
Both acquired bilateral nevus of Ota-like macules (ABNOM) and nevus of Ota are characterized by the presence of dermal melanocytes. There are no differences in the method of treatment, however, postinflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) develops more often in ABNOM than in nevus of Ota following treatment. We investigated the differences in the development of PIH after treatment between ABNOM and...

It is usually present at birth in the two thirds of patients who have ocular involvement.It is more common in females with 5% being bilateral.4 It was first described by Ota in 1939. It can be unilateral or bilateral. Exact etiology and pathology of NOO is not known. Unconfirmed hypothesis is that it represents melanocytes that have not migrated completely from the neural crest to the epidermis...
