Abstract

Cartilaginous nevus usually occurs in front of the auricle as an accessory auricle and much less frequently on the cheek or anterior part of the neck. We report a case of cartilaginous nevus found on an unusual location, The glabella of the face, in an otherwise normal newborn girl. We think that it was a remnant of the branchial cartilage derived from the first pharyngeal arch of embryonic life.
