“…Previously, in the same year, K aidbey and K urban [7] had introduced the disease under the title of 'dermatitic epidermal nevus'. The histopathologic features of this condition have been clearly outlined by D upre et al [5], The histologic picture of psoriasis in some linear epidermal nevi was first recognized by Unna [12] in 1896.…”

“…The granular layer is present. Differential diagnosis should also be made with chronic dermatitis and with inflammatory chronic verrucous epider mal nevus [4,5] (table IV). Cans and Kochs [6] published a case o f'erythematokeratotic phacom atosis' in 4 generations.…”

Erythrokeratodermia progressiva symmetrica

et al. 1982

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

10 cases of erythrokeratodermia progressiva symmetrica are described; 6 were familial, with autosomal-dominant inheritance. The disease started in early childhood, progressed during 1 or 2 years and then remained stationary with sharply marginated plaques remarkably symmetrical, usually sparing the thorax and abdomen. Histologically the picture was psoriasiform. The best therapeutic control was obtained with oral aromatic retinoids. The differential diagnosis is discussed.

“…On the other hand, acquired inflammatory dermatoses with a Blaschko-linear pattern are rare, and their etiology was unknown until recently [2]. Such skin conditions include linear forms of lichen planus, lichen nitidus, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, graft versus host disease, erythema multiforme, drug eruption, lupus erythematosus and pemphigus vulgaris, as well as inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus, lichen striatus, blaschkitis of the adult and linear atrophoderma of Moulin [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23]. In some of these cases an excessively pronounced linear involvement has been described to be superimposed on a background of an eruption of the usual type.…”

Pronounced Linear Calcinosis in a Boy with Mild Dermatomyositis

et al. 2009

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

A pronounced linear eruption with ulcerations and calcium extrusion present in a boy with a mild generalized rash clinically consistent with juvenile dermatomyositis or overlap syndrome is reported. Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) is a postzygotic mechanism by which a heterozygous somatic cell may become homozygous or hemizygous at a given gene locus. Such a mechanism can be suspected when a pronounced segmental manifestation of an acquired skin condition with a polygenic background is found to be superimposed on more or less symmetrically distributed nonsegmental lesions of the same disorder. Alternatively, such a segmental manifestation may reflect heterozygosity for a postzygotic mutation involving an additional gene locus. The severe linear lesions in our patient showed a Blaschko-linear arrangement and were superimposed on mild nonsegmental lesions of either amyopathic dermatomyositis or overlap syndrome. Either LOH or a postzygotic mutation at an additional gene locus may explain the pronounced linear involvement.
