Halo nevus (synonyms: Sutton nevus; leukoderma acquisitum centrifugum; albinismus perinaevicus) is a melanocytic nevus surrounded by a rim of depigmentation, resembling a halo. The lesion was originally identified as a distinct entity by Sutton in 1916, whereas in 1874 Hebra and Kaposi had described it as vitiligo [1]. © 2007 Springer-Verlag.
