Abstract

Inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus (ILVEN) is usually accompanied by persistent and severe pruritus. It is mostly located in the lower left limb as hyperpigmented or erythematous hyperkeratotic linear papules and/or plaques. Genital/perigenital involvement is extremely rare. It varies in size from very small lesions to the involvement of the whole extremity. The differential diagnosis is broad, including but not limited to lineer psoriasis, lichen striatus, verrucous epidermal nevus, lichen simplex chronicus, linear lichen planus and linear Darier disease and, prognosis is poor. In this report, we present a case of vulvar ILVEN that responded to topical nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory cream. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
