RESUMEN
Comunicamos el caso de una mujer de 45 años, que padece de un vitiligo y una tiroiditis de Hashimoto, de once años de duración. Hace dos años, se instalan lesiones de morfea variante liquen escleroso y atrófico en el tronco, abdomen y extremidades. Esta asociación es extremadamente rara. Sugerimos la hipótesis que un fenómeno isomórfico, esté afectando las antiguas máculas de vitiligo, es más que una casualidad.
ABSTRACT
A 45-year-old woman who has suffered from a disseminated vitiligo and a Hashimoto tiroiditis for 11 years, started two years ago with a third disease, a morphea variant “lichen sclerosus et atrophicus” localized in the trunk, abdomen and limbs. The clash of both diseases is very unusual. We suggest the hypothesis of being an isomorphic phenomenon that affects the old macules of the vitiligo more than a simple coincidence of two diseases in the same person.
