Halo Nevi

Chisa (1965) reported affected brother and sister, and Kopf et al. (1965) described affected sisters.

Herd and Hunter (1998) quoted an incidence of halo nevi of 1%. They reported a family that had lived in New Zealand in which a typical halo nevus was noted below the left breast of the mother. One daughter, aged 9 years, had 2 halo nevi, and 2 older daughters had 1 or 2 halo nevi. All 4 individuals had had much sun exposure.
