Supernumerary nipples–uropathies–Becker's nevus syndrome (also known as "SNUB syndrome") is a skin condition that may be associated with genitourinary tract abnormalities. Supernumerary nipples, also referred to as polythelia or accessory nipples, is a pigmented lesion of the skin that is present at birth. This pigmentation usually occurs along the milk lines, which are the precursors to breast and nipple development. Clinically, this congenital condition is generally considered benign, but some studies have suggested there may be an association with kidney diseases and cancers of the urogenital system.

  • Supernumerary nipples–uropathies–Becker's nevus syndrome (also known as "SNUB syndrome") is a skin condition that may be associated with genitourinary tract abnormalities. Supernumerary nipples, also referred to as polythelia or accessory nipples, is a pigmented lesion of the skin that is present at birth. This pigmentation usually occurs along the milk lines, which are the precursors to breast and nipple development. Clinically, this congenital condition is generally considered benign, but some studies have suggested there may be an association with kidney diseases and cancers of the urogenital system. Becker's nevus typically presents as a unilateral, non-cancerous patch of skin that is hyperpigmented and has excessive hair, often occurring on the chest, shoulder, and back. The term "Becker's nevus syndrome" is used to describe Becker's nevus occurring along with other skin, musculoskeletal, or other tissue abnormalities such as supernumerary nipples. There are some reports documenting an association between supernumerary nipples, Becker's nevus syndrome, and urinary tract abnormalities, although with conflicting results. This association has been dubbed "SNUB syndrome". (en)
