Neurocutaneous syndromes are the most typical examples supporting this observation. The prevalences of hypopigmented maculae and cafe-au-lait spots were investigated in 210 idiopathic epileptic children between the ages of 2 and 17 years and 2754 healthy children between the ages of 5 and 15 years. In the group of epileptic children, hypopigmented maculae and cafe-au-lait spots were observed in 30 (14.3%) and 63 (30%) children, respectively. In the group of healthy children, the prevalence of hypopigmented maculae was 1.6% (44 children) and of cafe-au-lait spots was 2.8% (78 children). The difference between the two groups was very significant statistically (P <.0001).eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessNevus-Like NeviTuberous SclerosisLesionsArticle17157591191357410.1177/0883073802017001162-s2.0-0036117871Q2WOS:000173996500015Q2
