Abstract

Nevoid hyperkeratosis of the nipple areola complex (NAC) is a rare dermatological pathology of unknown etiology, first described in 1923. It is a benign condition characterized by verrucous thickening and brownish discoloration of the NAC. We described the case of a 26-year-old woman with bilateral nevoid hyperkeratosis of the NAC. Several lines of treatment have been used with varying efficacy: conservative (calcipotriol and local retinoids), semi-conservative (CO2laser) and surgical (excision and total skin graft). The final result is very satisfactory and without recurrence at 1year follow-up.
