Successful treatment of confluent and reticulated papillomatosis with tetracycline and mupirocin
Journal Title: Türkderm - Deri Hastalıkları ve Frengi Arşivi - Year 2018, Vol 52, Issue 2
Abstract
Confluent and reticulated papillomatosis characterized by hyperkeratotic-pigmented papules is a rare dermatosis, which tends to settle in seborrheic areas. Some cutaneous disorders share the same features. Herein, we report a 51-year-old man with confluent and reticulated papillomatosis who was followed up as tinea versicolor which was unresponsive to treatment for six months. Confluent and reticulated papillomatosis should be kept in mind in patients with localized reticular pigmentation involving the upper trunk and neck.
