Inflamed bilateral linear atrophoderma of Moulin in an adult woman: a case report.

Linear atrophoderma of Moulin (LAM) is a rare dermatosis characterized by a hyperpigmented atrophoderma that follows Blaschko's lines, with onset usually occurring during childhood and adolescence. LAM is an etiologically unknown form of dermal atrophy. It is generally characterized by oval or round atrophic, nonsclerotic, hyperpigmented patches following Blaschko's lines. These patches are usually located on the trunk and the upper and lower extremities. This case study discusses a patient that had the nonclassical form of LAM with the initial lesions presenting as papules.
