Pigmented purpuric dermatosis is a disease characterized with localized purpuric lesions. Six different clinical types have been described. There are also unclassified variants including rare granulomatous and unilateral linear capillaritis. Unilateral linear capillaritis is characterized by a very rare, unilateral linear or segmental purpuric macula. A 18-yearold female patient was presented with a linear purpuric and petechial patch and macules on the left arm. Unilateral linear capillaritis is characterized with benign, recurrent purpuric lesions in children and young adolescants that may be presented with spontaneous regression.
