Abstract

Nevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis (NLCS) is a rare hamartoma of the skin characterized by histological presence of ectopic mature adipocyte in the dermis. We presented an uncommon case of the adult-onset classical form of NLCS, with the correlations between dermoscopy and histopathology of homogenous yellowish area, corresponding to the histological finding of mature fat cell in upper dermisfor the diagnosis of this type of skin condition.
