Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli. Case reports.

Erythromelanosis follicularis of the face and neck has seldom been described in the literature. It is a condition of unknown aetiology. The clinical features are reddish-brown pigmentation, telangiectatic vessels, and pale follicular papules localized in the peri-auricular area. The disease is asymptomatic and has only been described in men. This report records two patients with erythromelanosis follicularis of the face and neck, a boy and a young adult female.

Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli. A case report.

The thirteenth case of erythromelanosis follicularis o the face and neck is reported and attention is called to this entity. Characteristically, it affects males in adolescence or young adulthood. It begins symmetrically on the preauricular cheeks and imperceptibly spreads onto the temples and lateral aspects of the neck. It presents an irregularly marginated, red-brown pigmentation with fine telangiectasia, small, pale, slightly scaly, follicular papules, and patchy alopecia of vellus hair. The histologic features, although nondiagnostic, correlate well with the clinical features. The possible relationship to keratosis pilaris rouge is discussed.

A small number of cases have been reported in the oral mucosa, usually overlying the alveolar ridge or the palate. The present case exhibits both clinical and histologic features which are consistent with the previously reported cases.

[Focal acantholytic dyskeratosis in an intradermal pigmented nevus].

Dyskeratosis follicularis like changes are reported on a pigmented intradermal naevus (follicular infundibulum) from the nose of a 23 years old woman with no other stigmata of Darier's disease. These findings are discussed at the light of Ackerman's concept of focal acantholytic dyskeratosis and the relevant literature is reviewed.

Bullous dyskeratosis follicularis and acrokeratosis verruciformis. Report of a case.

Morbus Darier, Hailey's familiar benign chronic pemphigus, and acrokeratosis verruciformis were observed in one patient. The diagnosis was based on the clinical picture and microscopic studies. The simultaneous occurrence in one patient of these congenital diseases suggests that it is possible that all three disorders are variants of one and the same disease. Five close relatives of the patient had acrokeratosis verruciformis.
