Nevus sebaceous (NS) is a type of congenital scalp growth (it is noticed at birth). The newborn baby often has a hairless yellow colored area and the area remains devoid of hair for life. The area may be yellow, orange or pinkish color. The NS can change in appearance over time, especially at puberty. At puberty, it becomes much more bumpy and lumpy. A number of benign and malignant tumors may occur in the nevus sebaceous. The most common benign tumors are the trichiblastoma and syringocystadenoma papilliferum. In fact, about 10-30 % of nevus sebaceous develop these benign tumors. Rarely, malignant tumors like basal cell cancers can develop in the NS. This is rare, but periodic monitoring is advised. #nevussebaceous #hair #hairloss #pediatrichairloss

Nevus sebaceous is an uncommon scalp lesion that is present at birth. The child is born with a hairless patch and the area remains devoid of hair for life. The hairless area is often slightly yellow, orange or pinkish color. At puberty, the nevus sebaceous becomes much more bumpy. A number of benign and malignant tumors have been reported to occur in the nevus sebaceous. The most common benign tumors are the trichiblastoma and syringocystadenoma papilliferum. About 10-30 % of nevus sebaceous develop these benign tumors. Years ago, most individuals with a nevus sebaceous underwent surgical excision to have it removed out of concern for malignant transformation. Now the rate of transformation is understood to be very low (less than 1%) and routine monitoring is more common. #nevussebaceous #hair #hairloss #cancer #trichoblastoma #bcc #basalcellcarcinoma
