Abstract
One of the rare causes of localized and nonscarring alopecia is nevus psiloliparus (NP) which is a distinct type of mesodermal nevus of the scalp.It is characterized by absence or paucity of mature hair follicles and presence of an excessive amount fatty tissue in the scalp.It is considered a hallmark of encephalocraniocutaneous lipomatosis (ECCL), a rare disorder comprising a variety of cutaneous, ophthalmologic and neurologic defects, but can appear as an isolated finding.We report a rare case of nonsyndromic NP.
