A rare skin disease characterized by the co-occurrence of a widespread vascular nevus (typically nevus flammeus) and a pigmentary nevus, potentially associated with a variety of other cutaneous nevi, and with or without extracutaneous (most commonly central nervous system, ocular, or musculoskeletal) involvement. Several subtypes are distinguished based on phenotypic characteristics.
