Abstract
A 4-year-old female with no significant past medical history presented with dark raised lesions on the stomach and back since 2–3 months of age. The lesions would come and go and were not itchy. The patient had never had them evaluated before. She met all age appropriate milestones, and there was no personal or family history of allergies. Review of systems was negative for any constitutional symptoms, diarrhea, or wheezing.
