Nevoid hyperkeratosis of the nipple and/or areola is a rare and idiopathic disorder with fewer than 50 cases reported in the literature. We report two cases, discuss the clinical and histological findings, and review the literature pertaining to its pathogenesis and therapy. It is hoped that, through this report, nevoid hyperkeratosis of the nipple and/or areola becomes a more recognizable and reported entity, thereby stimulating future studies regarding its pathogenesis and therapy.

BACKGROUND. Nevoid hyperkeratosis of the nipple and areola (NHNA) is a rare condition of unknown etiology. Verrucous thickening and pigmentation of the nipple and areola are the main features of the condition. Different therapeutic options, both medical and surgical, have been described.OBJECTIVE. To use a radiofrequency surgical unit to treat an NHNA case, which was unresponsive to keratolytic therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The lesions of the nipple and areolaswere excised tangentially with a diamond-shaped electrode of a radiofrequency surgical unit under local anesthesia. RESULTS. The patient had a good cosmetic appearance after the treatment, and there was no recurrence at the ninth postoperative month.CONCLUSION. Radiofrequency for tangential excision in the treatment of NHNA lesions that have not responded to medical therapy can be an alternative surgical method.

“…Our case seems to belong to this last group with the distinctive feature of the asymmetrical unilateral distribution, also offering further evidence to strengthen the hypothesis that hormonal factors, oestrogens in particular, play a key role in the pathogenesis. Regarding treatment, 8 response to topical steroids, keratolytics, retinoids, cryotherapy, surgical excision and carbon dioxide laser 9 has been reported as variable. In 1998, Marin‐Bertolin et al 10 .…”
