Abstract:

Verrucous epidermal nevus is a common type of keratinocyte hamartoma present at birth or occurring later in life. It affects about one in every thousand live births. It is seen at any site, usually found on the lower extremities but is less common on the head and neck. We present a unique case of a female patient aged 12 years affected by zosteriform verrucous epidermal nevus over neck, a rare presentation.
