nevus unius lateris

nevus unius lateris
a congenital, verrucous type of epidermal nevus, ranging from pink to dark colored, occurring in a linear, unilateral pattern. On the limbs the lesions usually follow the long axis and may be arranged in continuous or broken spiral streaks, bands, or patches; on the trunk, they usually have a transverse orientation, as if along the distribution of the intercostal nerves.
