SUMMARY The ultrastructural features of two cases of porokeratosis of Mibelli are described. They demonstrate that the basophilic granular material in the cornoid lamella consists of whole degenerate cells with pyknotic nuclei. The dermis contains clumps of a finely fibrillar material and some collagen, and many fibroblasts show degenerative changes.
