J Pak Assoc Derma Jan ;25(1):76-7.

Sir, nevus is the Latin word for ‘maternal impression’ or ‘birthmark’ and indicates a circumscribed, non-neoplastic skin or mucosal lesion, usually present at or soon after birth, and fixed. Many, possibly all, nevi represent clones of genetically altered cells arising from mosaicism. Some of the nevi are commonly encountered like, acquired melanocytic nevi, Becker’s nevi and verrucous epidermal nevi. Some of them are extremely rare like, apocrine nevi, proteoglycan nevi, nevoid ichthyosis hystrix, kissing nevus and pigmented nevi within nevus depigmentosus.
