Abstract
INTRODUCTION
Phakomatosis (from the Greek ‘Phakos’ meaning mother spot or mole or freckle) is a group of hereditary disorders characterized by the presence of hamartias and hamartomas involving different organ systems derived from all the three embryonic layers.
The term phakomatosis was coined in 1920 by Van der Hoeve.
