Overview

Inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevi are skin lesions that follow the lines of Blaschko, characterized histologically by hypergranulosis with orthokeratosis and parakeratosis with agranulosis. It's often raised and can be flakey or scabby. 'Inflammatory' means the affected area is inflamed and warmer than the rest of the skin. 'Linear' because the affected areas are generally long and thin. 'Verrucous' because it is wart-like lesions. ILVEN can be very difficult to live with but can be easily treated with CO2 Laser Surgery to resurface the skin to give a flat, smoother and more normal appearance. Most sufferers in the United Kingdom get this treatment free on the NHS depending on whether it effects the quality of your life or not.[1]:635[2]:772
