Summary A 32‐year‐old woman is described who showed widespread papular, warty or linear lesions which have remained unchanged over a period of 9 years observation. Clinically and histo‐logically we consider the diagnosis to be inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal naevus. Unusual features were the relatively late onset and the widespread and bilateral distribution.

A 69-year-old man with painful, recalcitrant, localized acrodermatitis continua developed widespread pustulation which was resistant to high-dose methotrexate therapy. Low-dose cyclosporin induced a rapid and persistent remission.
