Lichen striatus, a skin condition, can present with multiple lines along Blaschko lines. This case highlights unusual presentations of lichen striatus in children.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Pediatric Dermatology
  • Genodermatology

Background:

  • Lichen striatus is an inflammatory skin condition.
  • It typically presents as a unilateral, linear eruption of papules or macules.
  • Lesions often follow Blaschko lines.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe unusual presentations of lichen striatus.
  • To document cases with multiple Blaschko lines in distinct anatomical areas.
  • To contribute to the understanding of lichen striatus variability.

Main Methods:

  • Case report of two pediatric patients.
  • Clinical observation of skin lesions.
  • Documentation of lesion distribution along Blaschko lines.

Main Results:

  • A 2-year-old mare child presented with bilateral hypopigmented papules along Blaschko lines.
  • A 7-year-old girl presented with hypopigmented macules linearly distributed on limbs and back along Blaschko lines.
  • Three discrete lines across distinct anatomical areas were observed in one case, a presentation not previously described.

Conclusions:

  • Lichen striatus can exhibit diverse and extensive patterns.
  • Presentations involving multiple Blaschko lines in separate anatomical regions are possible.
  • Further research is needed to understand the full spectrum of lichen striatus.
