Abstract

Reticulated acropigmentation of Kitamura (RAPK) and Dowling-Degos Disease (ODD) are rare genodermatoses characterized by reticulated pigmented macules located especially on the dorsa of the hands and feet in RAPK and on the flexures in DDD. In recent years, it is postulated that these two genodermatoses are two different clinical projections of a complex entity. We report a case showing the futures of both RAPK and DDD, supporting the hypothesis that they are different phenotypes of one single entity.

Özet

Kitamura'nın retiküler akropigmentasyonu (KRA), el ve ayakların dorsal yüzünde; Dowling-Degos Hastalığı (DDH) ise, fleksural bölgelerde retiküler pigmente maküllerle karakterize nadir görülen genodermatozlar olarak tanımlanmıştır. Son yıllarda KRA ve DDH'nin, kompleks bir antitenin farklı klinik yansımaları olduğuyla ilgili görüşler ön plana çıkmıştır. Burada nadir görülen bu antitenin farklı fenotipleri olduğuna inanılan KRA ve DDH özelliklerini birarada gösteren yaygın retiküler-punktat pigmentasyonu olan bir olgu sunulmaktadır.
