[Dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria. An unusually rare clinical picture]

A 30-year old male patient presented with a rare congenital pigment disturbance, dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria. Clinically, he displayed mottled hyperpigmentation covering almost the entire skin surface with accentuation in skin folds. The lesions had been present since birth. He was the only family member showing these changes. He had no other medical problems and took no medications.
