Comedonal Darier's disease.
Darier's disease is an inherited disorder with well-recognized patterns of presentation. Lesions commonly affect the trunk and flexures. The diagnosis is based on the typical clinical appearance and histology showing acantholytic dyskeratosis. We report two unusual cases with prominent nodular, comedonal lesions on the face and scalp.
