ABSTRACT
Progressive idiopathic atrophoderma of Pasini and Pierini is an asymptomatic atrophic disorder of the skin characterized by sharply demarcated, slightly depressed and slate-gray to brownish patches. The affected skin may be thin but of normal consistency. We herein described a 32-year-old female who showed on the trunk and extremities well-defined, brownish and atrophic areas without induration, but the central portion of the abdominal lesion was slightly thickened. Histopathologic findings showed slight thinning of the epidermis and dermis with mild perivascular infiltrate, however, the central portion of the abdominal lesion showed a focal, slightly sclerotic change of the collagen fibers.
