- Abstract
Congenital dermal melanocytosis (Mongolian spots) are congenital birthmarks that most commonly occur in the lumbosacral region. They are grey-blue to blue-green in colour and oval or irregular in shape. They are most commonly found in individuals of Asian or African ethnicity. These lesions resolve within one to two years of age. Although traditionally believed to be harmless in nature, they have been shown to occur in some lysosomal storage diseases. We present a Vietnamese neonate with congenital dermal melanocytosis, which we observed at diagnosis of a cystic mass of the left arm.
