“…The aetiology remains unclear although a genetic component (1) and follicular reaction pattern to unknown agents (3,4) have been suggested. An association with Crohn’s disease has been proposed (5). Immunosuppressed patients with lymphoma, HIV (6), post‐solid organ transplantation and children on chemotherapeutic regimes (7) have also been reported to develop lichen spinulosus‐like follicular lesions; however, these appear more florid and filiform than traditional, idiopathic lichen spinulosus.…”

A nine-year-old, white Brazilian boy presented with skin lesions present since the age of 2 years. His parents were nonconsanguineous and he had no family history of significant skin disease. Physical examination revealed hundreds of very firm, pinkish or yellowish nodules of various sizes widely distributed on the trunk, buttocks and limbs. The nodules were not freely mobile, being adherent to more extensive deep masses which were covered by erythematous skin (Fig. 1A,B). Some older nodules showed a depressed and atrophic surface. Pain was minimal but joint mobility was moderately impaired and some muscle atrophy was present on the limbs. No other signs of significant skin or systemic illnesses were observed. Investigation included full blood count, serum calcium and phosphate, renal function, muscle enzymes and anti-nuclear antibodies; the only abnormality found was a mild anaemia. A radiograph of pelvis and femora is shown in Fig. 2A. Histopathology of a removed nodule is shown in Fig. 2B.
