“…73 Oculodermal melanocytosis is usually a unilateral, although sporadic cases of bilateral involvement have been reported in the literature. [82][83][84][85][86][87][88] The vast majority of cases of ocular or oculodermal melanocytosis are sporadic in nature and only rarely have familial cases been reported in the literature. [89][90][91][92] Clinically, oculodermal melanocytosis is characterised by a bluish-grey pigmentation 88 involving areas of skin innervated by the first and the second divisions of the trigeminal nerve.…”

“…Furthermore, albeit in Japanese patients the naevus of Ota occurs bilaterally in up to 10% of cases (3), in Caucasians bilateral involvement is extremely rare. Since the first report of Kolde et al, there have been only five additional case reports of bilateral naevus Ota in the Caucasian population (10)(11)(12)(13)(14).…”

Background: Naevus of Ota, also called naevus fusculocoeruleus ophtalmomaxillaris, belongs to the group of dermal melanocytoses. It typically occurs in the Asian population, and it is extremely rare in Caucasians. The management of naevus of Ota has been challenging. Observation: We report a Caucasian patient presenting with a bilateral naevus of Ota which was successfully treated using a Q-Switched (QS) Nd: YAG 1064 laser. We further review the various available therapeutic options as well as the results obtained with various laser types, including the QS Nd: YAG 1064 and 532 nm, the QS ruby 694 nm and the QS alexandrite 755 nm lasers. Conclusion: Based on the remarkable clinical improvement observed in our case and previous reports, Q-Switched lasers currently represent the treatment of choice for the naevus of Ota. Development of picosecond techno logy in laser medicine has opened a new perspective for the treatment of Ota.

We used bilateral nevus of Ota to search the literature, finding that there were not many articles reported by Chiharu et al [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] It seems that if this disorder occurs at birth, it readily involves mucous membranes and has complications simultaneously.…”
