Reticulate pigmentation of the neck is a common finding in numerous genodermatoses and acquired diseases. As the neck is readily accessible to medical inspection, it may serve as a diagnostic window for various dermatoses. Several entities out of the spectrum of ectodermal dysplasia present with reticulate or mottled pigmentation on the upper trunk and neck. The most impressive genodermatoses with punctate and reticulate pigmentation affecting the neck are the Naegeli-Franceschetti-Jadassohn syndrome, dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis and dyskeratosis congenita. Reticulate pigmented anomaly of the flexures and lentiginosis, disorders of cornification and related entities are further genodermatoses which may involve the neck. In our review we have integrated inherited dermatoses which do not obligatorily affect the neck but have been well documented to do so. Our work should give the clinician a checklist on genodermatoses which may produce reticulate and mottled pigmentation on the neck.

“…On the basis of their own patients with recurrences after ten or more years, several authors have not been able to identify any risk factors [2,7,8]. Using the largest patient group to date, Faries et al [9], on the other hand, have been able to establish an association between late recurrence and a number of tumor and patient characteristics, such as younger patient age, female gender, smaller tumor thickness as well as lack of ulceration and lymph node involvement.…”

SHM Aljabre, AM Alamir, NA Habiballah, Erythromelanosis Follicularis Faciei: First Case Report from Saudi Arabia. 2003; 23(6): 397-398 Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei (or erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli when the neck is also affected) is a rarely documented skin disease. In this paper, a case of erythromelanosis follicularis faciei in a Saudi male patient is presented. We believe it is the first case from Saudi Arabia. CaseA 17-year-old Saudi male was referred to the dermatology department, King Fahd Hospital of the University, Alkhobar, Saudi Arabia, for evaluation of asymptomatic red lesions on the face. The duration of the lesion was six years. The cheeks were initially involved and the lesion gradually expanded. Exposure to sun aggravated the lesion. There were no systemic complaints and the family history was negative for similar lesions. The examination revealed well-defined symmetrical red-brown lesions with follicular papules involving the cheeks, lower lip and auricles (Figure 1). Beard hair on the cheeks was decreased. Keratosis pilaris was present in the shoulder areas. ANA and anti-double strand DNA were negative and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate and complete blood count were within normal limits. Biopsy showed mild hyperkeratosis, follicular plugging and increased pigmentation of the basal layer (Figure 2). In the dermis, there were dilated blood vessels and a sparse perivascular lymphocytic infiltrate.
