Abstract

Dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis is a rare reticulate pigmentary disorder which starts during infancy or childhood and consists of a triad of generalized reticulate hyperpigmentation, nonscarring alopecia, and nail dystrophy. We report 2 sisters with this syndrome with an additional association of atopic dermatitis in the elder one.
