A RARE CASE OF FAMILIAL AMYLOIDOSIS CUTIS DYSCHROMICA IN THREE SIBLINGS

Abstract

Amyloidosis cutis dyschromica is a rare form of primary cutaneous amyloidosis with very few cases reported in literature. We report three siblings , 24 and 20 -year -old females and 22- year- old male presenting with asymptomatic reticulate pigmentation with hypopigmented and hyperpigmented macules, prepubertal onset and familial tendency. Based on histopathological ndings, diagnosis of ACD was made. We present this case due to rarity of its occurrence and resemblance to other commonly occurring reticulate pigment dermatoses.
