[Superficial elastic nevus of the face. Its possible identification with "Elastome en nappe" of Dégos].
An Elastic Nevus is presented in the form of a solitary plate located in the cheek of a 24-year-olf woman, which had developed over the period of one year. Its histology very much resembles that of a solar elastosis. Its identity is discussed with a very similar case described by Larrotcha and Contreras and with those published by Dégos et al. as "Elastome en nappe du nez".
