Abstract
Hypomelanosis of Ito (HI) is a neurocutaneous syndrome with multisyste mic involvement, Its most frequent neurological abnormalities are ment al retardation and seizures. EEG, CT and MRI findings are not characte ristic enough to be diagnostic. In this report, we describe a patient with typical cutaneous lesions of HI and an intracranial arteriovenous malformation (AVM), which has not been previously reported.
