“…In our case, the linear lesion follows the lines of Blaschko. Other skin diseases such as congenital, nevoid, and acquired skin diseases may follow Blaschko's lines which are thought to reflect T‐lymphocyte migration and clonal expansion during embryogenesis 4 . The genetic mosaicism in an acquired Blaschko‐linear inflammatory dermatosis could be responsible for cutaneous antigenic mosaicism that may induce mosaic T‐cell response by the trigger of viral infection or drug 5,6 .…”

WHAT IS YOUR DIAGNOSIS? HISTORY OF THE DISEASEFemale patient, 15 months old, white, has presented from birth erythematous lesions, of linear or grouped distribution, involving trunk and lower extremities bilaterally. Lesions were extremely pruriginous and aggravated with heat. There were no pathological antecedents or previous family history of the disease. Dermatologic examination revealed papular lesions and erythematous plaques with areas of scaling and crusts, linearly distributed in the lower limbs, also affecting the inguinal region, buttocks, abdomen, and both sides of the thorax (Figures 1-3). Biopsy of the lesion showed irregular acanthosis, hyperparakeratosis, hyperpigmentation of the basement layer with discreet perivascular lymphocytic infiltrate in the papillary dermis, absence of vesicles in the epidermis and of melanosis in the dermis (Figure 4).

We report this interesting case as only few cases[5678910] are reported in the literature and also because, despite of having histopathological features of psoriasis, there was no response to antipsoriatic treatment but to surgical excision.…”
