Connective tissue nevus is defined as hamarthomatous malformations of dermal connective tissue components including collagen, elastic fibers or glycosaminoglycans. The mechanism of the increased connective tissue components remains uncertain. Collagen type of connective tissue nevus is the most common type. We herein report a collagen type of connective tissue nevus with clinical and pathological features in a 20-year-old man with a 7 year history of lesions on parasacral region. This case has been presented since it is a rare and benign lesion, and may be important for the differential diagnosis.Keywords: Nevus, connective tissue, skin and connective tissue diseasesTurkiye Klinikleri J Dermatol 2008, 18:55-58
