Familial reticulate acropigmentation of Dohi: a case report.
Reticulate acropigmentation of Dohi is a rare dyschromic disorder occurring predominantly among Japanese individuals. Only a few similar cases from Europe and some parts of Asia have been reported. This report describes two Filipino siblings who had reticulate hyperpigmented and hypopigmented macules on the extremities, typical of the disorder.
