title: Phacomatosis pigmentovasculosebacea: an unusual case of phacomatosis multiplex.
abstract: A 13-year-old Taiwanese boy had an unusual combination of nevus fuscocoeruleus, large café-au-lait macules, nevus achromicus, large telangiectatic nevi and systematized nevus sebaceus. The term "phacomatosis pigmentovasculosebacea" is proposed to describe the concurrence of these multiple nevi derived from pigmentary, vascular and epithelial cells.
