A case of delayed diagnosis of Dowling Degos disease
View through CrossRef
Dowling–Degos disease (DDD) is a rare genodermatosis characterized by acquired reticular hyperpigmentation of flexural sites, comedo-like lesions, and pitted facial scars. The classic disease is inherited by the autosomal dominant pattern. Herein, we present here the case of a fifty-year-old female diagnosed with Dowling–Degos disease.
