Popis: Epidermal nevi (EN) are hamartomatous lesions derived from epidermal components originating from pluripotent cell mutations. They have been categorized according to their predominant component. The existence of >2 types of EN concurrently within a single area or within contiguous areas has been rarely reported. This report describes the case of simultaneous presence of a yellowish plaque on the left medial canthus and an aggregation of closed comedo-like papules on the right side of the cheek of a 15-year-old girl.
