“…The incidence of smooth muscle hamartoma in Becker's melanosis has not been determined, however, Becker's melanosis without smooth muscle hamartoma has been reported. 9,14 Two of our patients had a rather early onset of lesions: one at age 3 years and the other at age 7 years. Late onset in the third decade of life was seen in one patient.…”

“…Becker’s naevus occurs in association with underlying developmental and structural abnormalities of bone and soft tissue [7, 8, 9, 10, 11] as well as with accessory scrotum [12] and congenital adrenal hyperplasia [13]. Various conditions may also develop within Becker’s naevus including smooth muscle hamartoma [14], connective tissue naevus [15], solitary plexiform neurofibroma [16], acneiform papules [17], perforating granulomatous folliculitis [18] and pityriasis versicolor [19].…”

We report a case of accessory mammary tissue of type 2a (or polythelia) entirely localized within a Becker’s naevus of mixed type in a 32-year-old Caucasian woman. Polythelia was congenital in origin while Becker’s naevus appeared during puberty. Renal ultrasonographic studies, laboratory examinations and other instrumental investigations were either normal or negative. Although the association of accessory mammary tissue with Becker’s naevus has previously been reported – also in the form of mammorenal and acromammorenal syndromes – this is the first case characterized by an anatomic overlap between the two anomalies. It may be the expression of a common disturbance acting early in embryogenesis in the specific developmental fields involved.

ecker nevüs (BN) veya diğer adıyla pigmente kıllı epidermal nevüs, Becker melanozu ilk kez 1948 yılında Becker tarafından iki genç erkek hastada tanımlanmıştır.1 Erkeklerde kadınlara göre 6 kat daha sık görülen BN, genellikle peripubertal dönemde ortaya çıkmakta-dır. BN keskin sınırlı, unilateral, düzensiz hiperpigmente makül ve yamalarla karakterize, birlikte hipertrikozisin bulunabildiği hamartomatöz bir lezyondur ve sıklıkla sırt, omuz, göğüs ve kolların üst kısımlarında yerleşim göstermektedir.2,3 Literatürde çok az sayıda alt ekstremite yerleşimli hasta mevcuttur. 4 Yüz yerleşimli BN ise çok daha nadir saptanmaktadır. 5-10Turkiye Klinikleri
