Gold MH, et al. Nevus Spilus Successfully Treated with an Intense Pulsed Light Source. Dermatol Surg 1999;25:254-5.

Background: Nevus spilus is usually an acquired lesion that can present therapeutic dilemmas for clinicians.

Objective: Using an intense pulsed light source, a nevus spilus on the face of a 23-uear-old woman was treated.

Methods: The intense pulsed light source, utilizing a 590 nanometer filter, was used to treat the nevus spilus.

Results: four treatments with the intense pulsed light successfully treated the nevus spilus, and it has remained clear at the 6-month follow-up.

Conclusions: Nevus spilus is a difficult condition to treat: the intense pulsed light source should be considered in the armamentarium when treating this condition.
