Abstract:
Inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus (ILVEN) is a type of epidermal nevus with the onset usually at early childhood. It is generally rather persistent with pruritus as a prominent symptom and is resistant to various treatments. We report a case of disfiguring ILVEN of the vulvar area, which was treated successfully with low fluence CO2 laser. The patient remains improved 2 years following laser therapy.
