Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 9
Abstract
Since the original description of porokeratosis in 1893 by Mibelli, various other forms of this disease have been described. Among these variants zosteriform porokeratosis is considered to be extremely rare with higher rate of malignant transformation. We are reporting an unusual presentation of zosteriform porokeratosis resembling nevoid psoriasis in a 19 year old boy over the left side of abdomen associated with intense pruritus.
