Abstract: Nevus sebaceous, also called nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn or organoid nevus, is a benign hamartoma of the skin, characterized by hyperplasia of the epidermis, immature hair follicles, and sebaceous and apocrine glands. Lesions are usually present at birth and appear as waxy, yellow-orange or tan, hairless plaques. They have a tendency to thicken and become more verrucous over time, especially around the time of puberty
