Abstract:
We report a case of atrophoderma of Pasini and Pierini in which the characteristic soft atrophic patch with cliffdrop border developed on the neck and two well-demarcated indurated atrophic patches were on both shoulders. We took biopsies from centers and margins of each lesion. Histipathologic findings from atrophic center showed marked dermal atrophy comparing to that from margin of the lesion on the neck, but the atrophic center and margin of the lesion on the shoulder showed morphea-like features without, distinct differences between two.
