Acral persistent papular mucinosis.
Acral persistent papular mucinosis has recently been proposed as a distinct form of cutaneous mucinosis. We describe a patient and review the literature. We conclude that acral persistent papular mucinosis is a distinct clinical entity, clearly separable from most other forms of cutaneous mucinosis except for one variant of lichen myxedematosus, from which it is less easily distinguished.
