Naevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis on the nose.
Naevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis (NLCS) is an uncommon hamartomatous lesion with an exceptional presentation on the face. We report the case of an elderly patient who presented with a classic type of NLCS on the right nasal orifice. This patient was taking inhaled steroids for his allergic rhinitis during 35 years.
