A 5 year old child presented on the nose and cheeks about fifty angiofbromas of 0,5-1.5 mm (Fig. 1). The family history was negative for tuberous sclerosis. At the age of 1 he presented febrile seizure. MRI and CT brain scans showed multiple areas of altered signal in the cortical-subcortical region and the largest in the frontal region showed a gross marginal calcification. Abdominal ultrasonography did not show significant alterations. The remaining examination of the skin and other organs was within normal limits except for an about 2 cm horizontal band of lighter hair in the occipital region (Fig. 3). The dermoscopic observation (Fig. 2) showed lighter and thinner hair in addition to normal hair.<br />The microscopy examination of the hair showed in the affected area thinner and lighter hair without medullary next to normal hair. The final diagnosis was hypotrichotic nevus in a patient with tuberous sclerosis. }, number={3}, journal={European Journal of Pediatric Dermatology}, author={Pisani, V. and Milano, A.}, year={2014}, month={Sep.}, pages={ 178} }
