“…[51021] In case of nevus of Ota the palatal lesion is infrequent and occurs most frequently with bilateral nevus of Ota. [625] Till date only 12 (excluding the present case) have been reported in English literature. [26] This present case is interesting because of the association of nevus of Ota with bilateral nevus of Ito with palatal lesion.…”

Baroody and Holds 13 emphasized that various microenvironmental influences and the different pathways of the neural crest derived progenitor cells may explain some of their differences.…”
