Abstract
Nevus of Ota is a dermal melanocytosis seen along the distribution of ophthalmic and maxillary divisions of the trigeminal nerve. Only 12 cases so far have been reported in English literature and it is rare in Indian subcontinent. Most of the cases reported are in females and oral cavity is infrequently involved. Here, we report a rare case of unilateral Nevus of Ota in a 56-year-old male with oral manifestations.Entities:
