ABSTRACT
Acantholytic dyskeratosis is seen in Darier's disease, transient acantholytic dermatosis and warty dyskeratoma. It is also occasionally observed incidental histological finding in pityriasis rosea, pityriasis rubra pilaris and is occasionally found in linear epidermal nevus. A 10-month-old boy presented linear hyperkeratotic plaques on the right sole and the left hand along with erythematous scaly papules on the posterior neck, the left axilla and the face. Histological findings showed acantholytic dyskeratosis with common histopathological findings of epidermal nevus. Acantholytic dyskeratosis is an occasional finding in linear epidermal nevus, but has been rarely reported in an infant(5 cases reported in 20 years). We report a case of linear epidermal nevus with acantholytic dyskeratosis in an infant.
