Reticulate hyperpigmentation of Iijima, Naito and Uyeno. A European case.
A 15-year-old girl is presented with symmetric, hyperpigmented streaks and whorls on trunk and extremities. The pigmentation is located in the basal layer of the epidermis. The clinical and histopathological picture seems to be identical to the reticulate hyperpigmentation of Iijima, Naito and Uyeno, hitherto only described from Japan.
