Title: Plaque-type blue nevus on the face: a variant of Ota's nevus? Author: Hsiao GH, Hsiao CW. Journal: J Am Acad Dermatol; 1994 May; 30(5 Pt 2):849-51. PubMed ID: 8169259.

It was characterized by several dark blue macules and papules with intervening areas of faint blue discoloration. Histologic examination showed a common blue nevus and a mongolian spot-like dermal melanocytosis in the dark blue and intervening faint blue pigmentary lesions, respectively.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
