Partial unilateral lentiginosis associated with segmental neurofibromatosis is rare. Therefore, we describe here a patient with partial unilateral lentiginosis associated with ipsilateral segmental neurofibromatosis who developed multiple, rice‐sized, brown macules on the right side of her face, trunk, and upper arm and several bean‐sized, café‐au‐lait spots on the right upper arm and right upper back. To our knowledge, partial unilateral lentiginosis associated with ipsilateral segmental neurofibromatosis has not been reported in the English literature.
