Abstract
A case of Becker's nevus occurring in association with an accessory scrotum is described. Recent studies have shown the presence of androgen receptors in Becker's nevus in concentrations comparable to those in genital skin. We postulate that the simultaneous occurrence of both these developmental anomalies was manifested because of androgen sensitivity and stimulation.Entities:
