title: Zosteriform connective tissue nevus: a case report.
abstract: Because of its distinctive clinical features and histopathological characteristics, zosteriform connective tissue nevus is considered a separate entity from other connective tissue nevi. Only two cases have previously been reported in the worldwide dermatological literature. Here we report a zosteriform connective tissue nevus in a 3-year-old boy with similar clinical presentation.
