Nevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis is an uncommon dermatosis in which the adipose tissue is present ectopically in the dermis.This condition is clinically divided into two variants: classical and solitary.The first is characterized by soft, pedunculated, cerebriform, skin-colored or yellowish papules or nodules, mainly involving the pelvic region.The latter is observed as a solitary or sessile papule. Treatment with surgical excision is usually enough. Nevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis may be associated with other conditions such as multiple lipomas, as in our case.
