Rippled hyperpigmentation resembling macular amyloidosis--a feature of atopic eczema
Clin Exp Dermatol.
1990 Sep.
Abstract
We present a patient with long-standing refractory atopic eczema who developed a pattern of lichenification and hyperpigmentation resembling macular amyloidosis. Histology showed changes of chronic lichenification only. We suggest that this appearance is a feature of her eczema rather than amyloidosis.
