Erythrosis interfollicularis colli and cutis rhomboidalis nuchae: two sides of a coin
1Dresden Municipal Hospital, Dresden Academic Teaching Hospital, Dresden, Germany.
Introduction:
Chronic exposure to sunlight accelerates extrinsic aging due to changes in the extracellular matrix. Cutis rhomboidalis nuchae and erythrosis interfollicularis colli are two benign skin disorders related to extrinsic aging.
Methods:
The study investigated possible co-occurrence in 50 male patients that developed skin cancer due to professional outdoor work, and demonstrated cutis rhomboidalis nuchae clinically and by dermoscopy.
Results:
The study observed 11 cases of co-existent erythrosis interfollicularis colli characterized by perifollicular white halos in dermoscopy. These patients had Fitzpatrick skin type II or III but not type I. The severity of erythrosis interfollicularis colli was diminished in the area of cutis rhomboidalis nuchae. Basal cell carcinomas were seen in only one patient on the borders of cutis rhomboidalis nuchae, whereas erythrosis interfollicularis colli did not prevent development of basal cell carcinomas. Actinic keratoses were seen in nine of 11 patients with erythrosis interfollicularis colli, but not with cutis rhomboidalis skin.
Conclusions:
This study argues for a local protective effect of cutis rhomboidalis nuchae against other ultraviolet light-induced cutaneous pathologies.

The various IMFs between identical molecules of a substance are examples of cohesive forces. The molecules within a liquid are surrounded by other molecules and are attracted equally in all directions by the cohesive forces within the liquid. However, the molecules on the surface of a liquid are attracted only by about one-half as many molecules. Because of the unbalanced molecular attractions on the surface molecules, liquids contract to form a shape that minimizes the number...
