Epidermal nevus syndrome (also known as "Feuerstein and Mims syndrome",[1][2] and "Solomon's syndrome"[1]:775[3]) is a rare disease that was first described in 1968 and consists of extensive epidermal nevi with abnormalities of the central nervous system (CNS), skeleton, skin, cardiovascular system, genitourinary system and eyes.[2]:634 However, since the syndrome's first description, a broader concept for the "epidermal nevus" syndrome has been proposed, with at least six types being described:[1]:776[4]
