Neonatal nevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis managed by surgical resection alone

Abstract

Abstract Naevus Lipomatosus Cutaneous Superficialis(NLCS) is very rare in neonates and presents as part of broad spectrum of skin lesions. Clinical appearance alone can be deceptive. Prompt radiologic evaluation and surgical excision with visible clear margins should be first line of management followed by pathological confirmation to rule out any other sinister pathology.
