In itself, NSML is not a life-threatening diagnosis, most people diagnosed with the condition live normal lives. Obstructive cardiomyopathy and other pathologic findings involving the cardiovascular system may be a cause of death in those whose cardiac deformities are profound.

It is suggested that, once diagnosed, individuals be routinely followed by a cardiologist, endocrinologist, dermatologist, and other appropriate specialties as symptoms present.

It is recommended that those with the syndrome who are capable of having children seek genetic counseling before deciding to have children. As the syndrome presents frequently as a "forme fruste" (incomplete, or unusual form) variant, an examination of all family members must be undertaken. As an autosomal dominant trait there is a fifty percent chance with each child that they will also be born with the syndrome. Although fully penetrant, since the syndrome has variable expressivity, one generation may have a mild expression of the syndrome, while the next may be profoundly affected.

Once a decision to have children is made, and the couple conceives, the fetus is monitored during the pregnancy for cardiac evaluation. If a gross cardiac malformation is found, parents receive counseling on continuing with the pregnancy.

Other management is routine care as symptoms present:

1. For those with endocrine issues (low levels of thyrotopin [a pituitary hormone responsible for regulating thyroid hormones], follicle stimulating hormone) drug therapy is recommended.

2. For those who are disturbed by the appearance of lentigines, cryosurgery may be beneficial. Due to the large number of lentigines this may prove time consuming. An alternative treatment with tretinoin or hydroquinone creams may help.

3. Drug therapies for those with cardiac abnormalities, as those abnormalities become severe enough to warrant the use of these therapies. ECG's are mandatory prior to any surgical interventions, due to possible arrythmia.

Westerhof syndrome is a cutaneous condition inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion, characterized by congenital hypopigmented macules.

Currently there is no specific treatment for this condition. Management is supportive.

Café au lait spots can be removed with lasers. Results are variable as the spots are often not completely removed or can come back after treatment. Often, a test spot is treated first to help predict the likelihood of treatment success.

Jaffe–Campanacci syndrome is one of the disorders associated with café au lait macules (CALMs). Presentations may include Intellectual Disability, disseminated non-ossifying fibromas of the long bones and jaw, hypogonadism or cryptorchidism, or giant cell granulomas of the jaw.

It was characterized in 1958 and 1983.

No curative treatment against EV has been found yet. Several treatments have been suggested, and acitretin 0.5–1 mg/day for 6 months’ duration is the most effective treatment owing to antiproliferative and differentiation-inducing effects.

Interferons can also be used effectively together with retinoids.

Cimetidine was reported to be effective because of its depressing mitogen-induced lymphocyte proliferation and regulatory T cell activity features. A report by Oliveira "et al." showed that cimetidine was ineffective. Hayashi "et al." applied topical calcipotriol to a patient with a successful result.

As mentioned, various treatment methods are offered against EV; however, most importantly, education of the patient, early diagnosis, and excision of the tumoral lesions take preference to prevent the development of cutaneous tumors.

Terminal osseous dysplasia with pigmentary defects is a cutaneous condition characterized by hyperpigmented, atrophic facial macules.

It has been associated with "FLNA".

Café au lait spots can arise from diverse and unrelated causes:

- Having six or more café au lait spots greater than 5 mm in diameter before puberty, or greater than 15 mm in diameter after puberty, is a diagnostic feature of neurofibromatosis type I, but other features are required to diagnose NF-1.

- Familial multiple café au lait spots have been observed without NF-1 diagnosis.

- They can be caused by vitiligo in the rare McCune–Albright syndrome.

- Legius syndrome

- Tuberous sclerosis

- Fanconi anemia

- Idiopathic

- Ataxia-telangiectasia

- Basal cell nevus syndrome

- Benign congenital skin lesion

- Bloom syndrome

- Chédiak–Higashi syndrome

- Congenital naevus

- Gaucher disease

- Hunter syndrome

- Jaffe–Campanacci syndrome

- Maffucci syndrome

- Multiple mucosal neuroma syndrome

- Noonan syndrome

- Pulmonary Stenosis

- Silver–Russell syndrome

- Watson syndrome

- Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome

Dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria is a rare genodermatosis characterized by reticulate hyper- and hypo- pigmentated macules in a generalized distribution.

Both autosomal dominant and recessive inheritance have been reported with the disorder.

Treatment for the disease itself is nonexistent, but there are options for most of the symptoms. For example, one suffering from hearing loss would be given hearing aids, and those with Hirschsprung’s disorder can be treated with a colostomy.

If the Hirschsprung's disease is treated in time, ABCD sufferers live otherwise healthy lives. If it is not found soon enough, death often occurs in infancy. For those suffering hearing loss, it is generally regressive and the damage to hearing increases over time. Digestive problems from the colostomy and reattachment may exist, but most cases can be treated with laxatives. The only other debilitating symptom is hearing loss, which is usually degenerative and can only be treated with surgery or hearing aids.

Genetically, there is a postzygotic mutation (spontaneous mutation) of the gene GNAS, on the long (q) arm of chromosome 20 at position 13.3, which is involved in G-protein signaling. This mutation, which occurs only in the mosaic state, leads to constitutive receptor signaling and inappropriate production of excess cAMP.

The mutation that causes McCune–Albright syndrome arises very early during embryogenesis. It is not passed down from parent to child. There are no known risk factors for acquiring McCune–Albright syndrome, and no exposures during pregnancy that are known to either cause or prevent the mutation from occurring.

Pitt–Hopkins syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by developmental delay, a wide mouth, distinctive facial features, and intermittent hyperventilation followed by apnea. It is associated with an abnormality within chromosome 18: specifically, it is caused by an insufficient expression of the TCF4 gene.

Lichen ruber moniliformis is a rare skin disease named for Fred Wise and Charles R. Rein.

It is one of several diseases also known as Kaposi's disease, based on its characterization in 1886 by Moritz Kaposi.

It is thought to be a rare variety of lichen planus.It is also known as "Morbus moniliformis lichenoides".

Reticulate acropigmentation of Kitamura consists of linear palmar pits and pigmented macules 1 to 4 mm in diameter on the volar and dorsal aspects of the hands and feet, usually inherited in an autosomal-dominant fashion.

The decision to observe or treat a nevus may depend on a number of factors, including cosmetic concerns, irritative symptoms (e.g., pruritus), ulceration, infection, and concern for potential malignancy.

Dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria (also known as "reticulate acropigmentation of Dohi", and "symmetrical dyschromatosis of the extremities") is a rare autosomally inherited dermatosis. It is characterized by progressively pigmented and depigmented macules, often mixed in a reticulate pattern, concentrated on the dorsal extremities. It presents primarily in the Japanese, but has also been found to affect individuals from Europe, India and the Caribbean.

This disease is caused by mutation in the double stranded RNA specific adenosine deaminase (ADAR1) gene. This gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 1 (1q21).

Large and especially giant congenital nevi are at higher risk for malignancy degeneration into melanoma. Because of the premalignant potential, it is an acceptable clinical practice to remove congenital nevi electively in all patients and relieve the nevocytic overload.

Transient neonatal pustular melanosis (also known as "transient neonatal pustulosis" and "lentigines neonatorum") is a cutaneous condition that presents at birth with 1- to 3-mm flaccid, superficial fragile pustules, some of which may have already resolved in utero, leaving pigmented macules.

The disease causes numerous whitish punctiform papules and brownish macules arranged in a necklace-like pattern.

Epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV), also known as treeman syndrome, is an extremely rare autosomal recessive hereditary skin disorder associated with a high risk of skin cancer. It is characterized by abnormal susceptibility to human papillomaviruses (HPVs) of the skin. The resulting uncontrolled HPV infections result in the growth of scaly macules and papules, particularly on the hands and feet. It is typically associated with HPV types 5 and 8, which are found in about 80% of the normal population as asymptomatic infections, although other types may also contribute.

The condition usually has an onset of between the ages of one and 20 but can occasionally present in middle age. The condition is also known as Lewandowsky–Lutz dysplasia – named after the physicians who first documented it, Felix Lewandowsky and Wilhelm Lutz.
