ABSTRACT

We report two cases of dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria. One is a 12-year- old female and her family had five individuals with similar pigmentary disorder through three generation. The other is a 22-yesr-old female who had no family history of similar disease. Fontana-Masson stain revealed increased and decreased melanin granules in the basal cell layers in the pigmented and depigmented lesions respectively.
