A 24-year-old woman presented with multiple pink papules over her entire body which had been present for 18 months. She had suffered from epilepsy since childhood, had an abnormal electroencephalography (EEG), and had experimented with intravenous drugs (methamphetamine) for about one year five years earlier.

Initially the patient was treated with cryotherapy because of the misdiagnosis of molluscum contagiosum and verrucae vulgares. Spitz nevi can be classified into 3 variants: solitary, agminated and eruptive-disseminated.
