Özet

Unilateral nevoid telangiectasia is a rare cutaneous disease characterized by unilateral dermatomal or blaschkoid distrubution of superficial dermal telangiectasia, first described by Alfred Blaschko in 1899. Unilateral nevoid telangiectasia can be congenital or acquired. Whereas congenital forms mainly seen in men, acquired forms seen in female. It is located on the trigeminal, cervical (C3-C5) and upper thoracic dermatomes but more rarely in the lumbar or sacral dermatomes. We present an 8 years-old girl patient with a diagnosis of acquired involving left L5-S1 dermatomes. Since unilateral nevoid telangiectasia is seen rarely and very few reported cases of patients with lower extremity, it is discussed in the light of the literature data.
