Cases of secondary milia en plaque have been described in patients with lupus erythematosus, pseudoxanthoma elasticum, lichen planus follicularis tumidus and lichenoid eruption, contact dermatitis, folliculotropic mycosis fungoides with cysts and comedones, follicular mucinosis and in patients in use of cyclosporine following organ transplantation, although doubt remains with respect to this last group.…”
