Shagreen patch

Radiopaedia • CC-by-nc-sa 3.0 • de

A shagreen patch is a subepidermal collagenous connective tissue nevus, also known as a collagenoma, associated with tuberous sclerosis. The overlying skin may be discoloured with obvious pours, giving the appearance of orange peel. These lesions are most commonly found in the lumbosacral region or the nape of the neck.
