Clinicopathological Spectrum of Nevus Lipomatosus Superficialis: Insights From a Single-Center Study

NLS is a rare cutaneous malformation. In this study, all histopathologically diagnosed NLS cases were of the solitary variant with a female predominance. However, larger studies are needed to confirm these patterns. Accurate clinical and histopathological recognition is crucial to avoid misdiagnosis with other common benign skin lesions.

Abstract

NLS is a rare cutaneous malformation. In this study, all histopathologically diagnosed NLS cases were of the solitary variant with a female predominance. However, larger studies are needed to confirm these patterns. Accurate clinical and histopathological recognition is crucial to avoid misdiagnosis with other common benign skin lesions.
