title: Unusual leukoderma after erythema multiforme: a case report.
abstract: Erythema multiforme is an inflammatory disorder of the skin that usually fades without sequelae. It is well known that after inflammatory events, hyper- or hypochromic spots can remain, especially in skin types III-VI, but achromia is very rare. We report a case of residual leukoderma after erythema multiforme.
