Article Abstract
This case report explores a rare manifestation of Becker's nevus, where the patient exhibited an unusual dermatomal distribution featuring a hyperpigmented, irregular patch with associated hypertrichosis on the T4 segment. While Becker's nevus is a well-known dermatological condition typically observed in the upper back region, instances of dermatomal distribution are exceptionally uncommon. This case presents a unique occurrence of segmental Becker's nevus, highlighting the atypical presentation of this condition.

Becker nevus syndrome is a rare cutaneous disorder characterized by the presence of a hyperpigmented patch of skin typically occurring on the upper trunk, often associated with hypertrichosis, and sometimes associated with musculoskeletal abnormalities ipsilateral to the nevus. Becker nevus syndrome can lead to breast hypoplasia. Unlike other forms of breast hypoplasia, treatment should begin before the completion of breast development.
