A Case of Disseminated Superficial Porokeratosis with Dermal Amyloid Deposition / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

Secondary localized cutaneous amyloidosis appears in association with a variety of inflammatory skin diseases and skin tumors. The presence of dermal amyloid deposits in lesions of porokeratosis has rarely been described in the literature. We describe a Korean case of disseminated superficial porokeratosis, with clear histologic evidence of amyloid deposition in the upper dermis.
