Sumario:Nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn (NSJ) is a benign congenital hamartoma composed of follicular, adnexal appendages and epidermal hyperplasia. Various secondary neoplasms, mostly adnexal in origin, can arise within nevus sebaceous. We report the case of a 16-year-old female who had NSJ associated with trichilemmoma, which was successfully treated with cryotherapy. We found cryotherapy to be an effective, satisfactory therapy, with acceptable cosmetic results, especially for patients who have visible lesions that can be easily followed.
