Abstract
Intradermal nevi are common benign proliferations of uniform melanocytes that are located initially at the dermal-epidermal junction and over time tend to migrate into the dermis and regress with subsequent morphological changes. At the end stage of this process, all the Naevus cells are completely detached from the overlying epidermis and is called intradermal nevus. We report a case of intradermal nevi in a 36 year old female presented to the Dermatology OPD with clusters of grapes like growth over the scalp for the last 5 years and confirmed with clinical and histopathological features.
