INZA, M et al. Nevo epidérmico verrugoso inflamatorio lineal extenso. Reporte de un caso. Rev. argent. dermatol. [online]. 2020, vol.101, n.2, pp.101-110. ISSN 1851-300X.

Inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus (ILVEN) is a rare variant of epidermal nevus that appears most frequently at birth or in early childhood. Clinically, it is presented as pruritic keratotic erythematous plaques, following the lines of Blaschko. Histopatology plays an essential role for differential diagnosis and treatment constitutes a medical challenge.

We present the case of a 38-year-old man, with extensive presentation of the pathology and little response to topical therapy.
