  • Title: Multiple giant congenital melanocytic nevi with central nervous system melanosis.
    Author: Ahuja SR, Karande S, Kulkarni MV.
    Journal: Neurol India; 2003 Dec; 51(4):541-3. PubMed ID: 14742944.
    Abstract:
    A case of multiple giant congenital melanocytic naevi in whom central nervous system melanosis was detected at 6 weeks of age is described. The infant was asymptomatic, but presence of risk factors such as multiple naevi, giant naevi and naevi on scalp and posterior axial location prompted a magnetic resonance imaging study of the brain. To our knowledge, neurocutaneous melanosis at such a young age has not been reported in Indian literature.
