CARBO AMOROSO, E J et al. Inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus (ILVEN): Late onset disease. Rev. argent. dermatol. [online]. 2008, vol.89, n.2, pp.90-95. ISSN 1851-300X.

The ILVEN is the inflammatory variety of epidermal nevi, benign hamartomatous tumor that distributed following Blaschko lines. These lines represent cutaneous mosaicism in embryologic development. The ILVEN usually appear in the infancy. Generally unilateral and occasionally is very pruriginous. The differential diagnosis is often difficult. We present a patient in which the manifestation of her disease is produced in late onset, being this infrequent. Management is a challenge, multiple therapeutic modalities have been tested, with discouraging results. Surgery can be utilized in small size lesions. Laser therapy could be of utility.
