Linear cutaneous lesions and neurological deficit. A case report.
A patient with subdural hygroma in the perinatal period developed into a right hand sided spastic hemiplegia with epileptic seizures and intellectual deficit. On the age of 17 years a linear dermatosis that proved to be a naevus unislateris was remarked. The combination of linear nevi and neurological deficit is known as the epidermal nevus syndrome.
