Atrophoderma of Pasini and Pierini (APP), a rare skin condition, can affect multiple family members. This report details three siblings with APP, highlighting potential genetic factors in localized scleroderma.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Genetics
  • Autoimmune Diseases

Background:

  • Atrophoderma of Pasini and Pierini (APP) is an uncommon morphoea variant.
  • It presents as superficial, hyperpigmented plaques on the trunk and limbs.
  • Limited data exists on genetic and environmental influences in localized scleroderma.

Observation:

  • Three siblings presented with cutaneous lesions suggestive of APP.
  • The siblings had no prior family history of autoimmune disorders.
  • This case suggests a potential familial predisposition to APP.

Findings:

  • Familial occurrence of Atrophoderma of Pasini and Pierini (APP) is rare.
  • The presentation in siblings without a family history warrants further investigation.
  • This case highlights potential genetic links in localized scleroderma.

Implications:

  • Further research into the genetic basis of APP is needed.
  • Understanding genetic factors may improve diagnosis and management of localized scleroderma.
  • This case contributes to the understanding of APP's etiology.
