Where this comes from

Abstract

Two patients with an unusual association of extensive cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita and aberrant mongolian spots are reported. We believe that such association is best explained as a phenomenon of non-allelic twin spotting. We found only one previous similar case in a textbook, and we support the classification of this condition as phacomatosis pigmentovascularis type V.
