“…The first case of pigmentary lines of the newborn was described in 1967 in a Black male infant 1 . Since then, few reports have been published in the literature, suggesting the rarity and benign nature of the condition 2–8 . Although one familial case has been reported, 3 the dermatosis is usually sporadic.…”

Horizontal lines in a 4-month-old infant CASE PRESENTATIONA 4-month-old African male presented with hyperpigmented, horizontal lines on the abdomen, back, and limbs noted at 1 month of age. The infant was born healthy at full term, by vaginal delivery after a pregnancy complicated by oligohydramnios. The baby was healthy with normal development. On examination, the patient appeared well and presented with multiple hyperpigmented lines, horizontally distributed on the abdomen, back, and upper limbs following Langer lines. These were thin following the course of normal skin folds (Figure 1). There was an absence of pigment network and aggregated brown or black globules on dermoscopy examination; faint linear hyperpigmentation is seen (arrow, Figure 2). No other skin abnormality was observed.

Various diseases of pigmentation in the newborn are known, such as congenital or acquired linear hyperpigmentation. Pigmentary lines of the newborn are counted among the transient benign cutaneous lesions in the newborn and appear to be rather rare. This paper reports on a newborn with pigmentary lines in the creases of the abdomen. The 5-month-old boy is the first case observed so far in the University Hospital of Basel in Switzerland. He was born at term and healthy, without any congenital abnormalities. The horizontally arranged linear hyperpigmentation appeared shortly after birth and faded spontaneously after 5 months. Pigmentary lines of the newborn are rare and the non-hormonal cause may be flexion in utero or other mechanically induced stimulation. So far, only eight similar cases have been reported, which are listed in a table.
