“…A mutation of the keratin 10 gene was found in keratinocytes from the nevus but not from normal skin 10 . Similar evidence confirming genetic mosaicism has been found in nevus comedonicus and nevus sebaceous as well as in segmental neurofibromatosis 11 . These lesions, together with other findings, are part of distinctive clinical syndromes.…”

“…As a result, a naevus may continue to be asymptomatic throughout life or sporadically induce tumor transformation. 6 The patient presented in this report could not relate the presence of a previous naevus on oral mucosa, but because a naevus is symptoms free and may pass unnoticed throughout the patient's life, this possibility cannot be excluded. Otherwise it may have more than 1 mechanism for hyperpigmentation, but the significance of intratumoral pigmentation remains inexplicable.…”

“…6 Genetic mosaicism can result from lyonization, somatic mutation, half-chromatid mutation, chromosomal nondisjunction, or chimerism. 7 It is plausible that this pigmentary lesion we have described is also a manifestation of genetic mosaicism, albeit through a different mechanism not occurring along Blaschko's lines.…”
