“…El curso evolutivo es crónico, alternando periodos de mejoría y empeoramiento. 13 La pigmentación macular eruptiva idiopática es una enfermedad poco frecuente caracterizada por máculas hiperpigmentadas de color grisáceo o pizarra, no confluentes y asintomáticas, que comprometen el tronco, el cuello y las extremidades proximales, respetando cara; ocurre en niños y adolescentes sin antecedentes de inflamación previa ni exposición a drogas. En la histopatología se observa una hiperpigmentación de las células basales de la epidermis y melanófagos en la dermis, sin signos de infiltrado inflamatorio liquenoide y recuento normal de mastocitos.…”

“…According to a previous report, postinflammatory pigmentation is the most common cause of hyperpigmented macules. 2 Giacaman et al 2 described 3 cases in children of white and South American origin.

The aim was to describe the characteristic dermatoscopic features of hyperpigmented macules on the faces of young children. Sixteen patients with typical clinical presentations of hyperpigmented macules on the faces of young children were included in this study. The lesions were evaluated using a dermatoscope. The clinical and dermatoscopic features were analyzed and summarized. There were 12 boys and 4 girls enrolled in the study. The hyperpigmented macules had an age of onset ranging from 1 to 18 months (mean, 6.12 months). The hyperpigmentation was distributed on the forehead and/or temple, as follows: forehead (n = 8 [50%]); temple (n = 3 [18.8%]); and both sites (n = 5 [31.2%]). Fifteen patients (93.7%) had pseudoreticular pigmentation, 1 patient (6.3%) had reticular pigment with pseudoreticular pigment, and 100% had erythema and linear/branching vessels. Light brown pseudoreticular pigment and linear vessels were shown to be the 2 major dermatoscopic manifestations of hyperpigmented macules on the faces of young children.
