ABSTRACT
Papular elastorrhexis is a rare disorder in which children or adolescents present with asymptomatic, non-follicular, 1~5 mm firm white papules on the trunk and extremities. Histologically, there are focal areas of collagen homogenization with decreased and fragmented elastic fibers. Most reported cases are sporadic, but familial occurrence has been described. We report an uncommon and interesting case of papular elastorrhexis in both a brother and sister.
