Diffuse primary cutaneous amyloidosis.
A case of extensive primary cutaneous amyloidosis exhibiting both macular and lichenoid lesions is reported. Lesions were arranged in a distinctive linear pattern covering much of the trunk and limbs, in places following Blaschko's lines. The coexistence of macular and lichenoid lesions suggests that this is an unusual variant of biphasic cutaneous amyloidosis.
