Abstract:
Linear focal elastosis is a new disease that clinically shows asymptomatic, palpable, striae-like lines extending horizontally across the middle and lower back and histologically a focal increase in elastic fibers separating the dermal collagen bundles. We report typical cases of linear focal elastosis clinically and histologically in three teenaged males.
