Abstract

The article presents a study that determines the characteristics of yellow globules in balloon cell naevus. It cites the case of an eight-year-old boy presented with yellowish-brown congenital papule on her right cheek and his histological examination revealed a dermal melanocytic naevus with confluent nests and sheets of large clear cells. It notes the result which shows that yellow or white globules associated with a brown pigmentation is an indication of balloon cell naevus.
