This case report details acquired Blaschkoid dermatitis, a rare inflammatory skin condition. It highlights a unique presentation in an Indian male, emphasizing the importance of recognizing Blaschko lines in dermatological diagnosis.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Blaschkoid dermatitis is a rare inflammatory skin condition characterized by unilateral lesions following Blaschko's lines.
  • Understanding its etiology and presentation is crucial for accurate diagnosis and management.

Observation:

  • A 40-year-old Indian male presented with unilateral, itchy, erythematous papules on the left chest, abdomen, back, and arm.
  • The rash exhibited a distinct midline demarcation and followed Blaschko's lines in whorls and streaks.

Findings:

  • Skin biopsy revealed hyperkeratosis and sub-acute spongiotic dermatitis with dermal perivascular lymphocytic infiltrate.
  • The patient was diagnosed with acquired Blaschkoid dermatitis.

Implications:

  • This is the first reported case of acquired Blaschkoid dermatitis from India.
