Abstract
Inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus (ILVEN) is a benign cutaneous hamartoma characterized by intensely erythematous, pruritic, and inflammatory papules that occur as linear bands along the lines of Blaschko. There is a considerable clinical and histological resemblance between ILVEN and linear psoriasis, lichen striatus, linear lichen planus, and invasion of epidermal nevus by psoriasis. The pathogenesis of ILVEN is unknown. It is regarded as a genetic dyskeratotic disease reflecting genetic mosaicism. Here, a case of vulvar and perianal condyloma superimposed ILVEN is presented.
Highlights
Inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus (ILVEN) is a relatively uncommon benign cutaneous hamartoma described by Altman and Mehregan in 1971 [1]
Surgical excision was performed for vulvar and perianal condylomas and pathology result confirmed the diagnosis
