Inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus (ILVEN) encompasses a spectrum of inflammatory mosaic disorders

Abstract: Background Inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus (ILVEN) is a rare skin disease characterized by pruritic erythematous scaly plaques distributed along the lines of Blaschko. Two cases of ILVEN with CARD14 mutations and one case with a GJA1 mutation have been previously reported. Objective To elucidate the genetic cause of a cohort of patients diagnosed based on clinical and histopathological evaluation with ILVEN. Methods We recruited patients diagnosed with ILVEN based on clinical and histopathologica… Show more

“…5 Approximately 10% of patients show genetic mosaicism for CARD14. 6 Lichen striatus, also referred to as blaschkoid dermatitis, presents as a thin, arc-shaped line of flat-topped, fleshcolored to pinkish papules or plaques along the upper and lower extremities. 7 The precise cause remains uncertain, and the condition typically resolves on its own.…”

“…Histopathology in the postpubertal stage reveals epidermal hyperplasia, hyperplastic sebaceous glands, and dilated ectopic apocrine glands. 6,7 Secondary skin and appendageal tumors arise in .50% of patients with nevus sebaceus. 8 Although most of these tumors are benign, clinical monitoring is essential and systemic workup may be required.…”

“…22 In some patients difficult to get a final diagnosis, genetic analysis has the potential significance for diagnosis and treatment. 23 In summary, the ñ sign could be a useful visual clue for dermatologists, pathologists, and clinicians with less experience to distinguish between psoriasis and other inflammatory skin disorders. The combination of the ñ sign and neutrophilic infiltration or pustules within the upper epidermis has better sensitivity and specificity for psoriasis, especially when PRP needs to be excluded.…”
