Disseminated superficial actinic porokeratosis occurring in two members of an Asian family.
Disseminated superficial actinic porokeratosis (DSAP) is a genodermatosis which usually affects fair-skinned individuals at sites of chronic sun exposure, although the face is usually spared. We now report the occurrence of this condition in a Pakistani mother and her 13-year-old daughter, both predominantly with facial lesions.
