Editor
Becker’s nevus otherwise known as Becker’s pigmented hairy nevus, is a hamartoma with brown hyperpigmentation and hypertrichosis.1 The lesions mostly occur in the second and third decades of life and are six times more common in males than in females. Although the lesions may have various shapes, they consistently have a geographic or block like configuration in an irregular fashion; a linear pattern has rarely been reported.1,2 The lesions are most frequently localized on the upper half of the trunk and proximal upper extremities. There have been rare case reports of Becker nevus localized on lower extremities. Becker nevus localized on the face has been reported much more rarely in the literature.2
