Abstract:
Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et coli is a pigmentary disorder of unknown cause originally described by Kitamura et al in 1960. We describe two cases of erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli occured in adolescence. Clinical features of these patients were consistent with the clinical changes described in previous cases having clinical triad of erythema, hyperpigmentation and follicular papules. This pigmentary disorder may not be an uncommon disease, however it might be neglected from the concern of the dermatologists.
