    Pseudoatrophic tinea versicolor, a rare skin condition, can develop rapidly. This case study confirms its diagnosis and successful treatment with topical antifungal medication.

    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Mycology

    Background:

    • Tinea versicolor is a common superficial fungal infection caused by Malassezia species.
    • It typically presents as hypo- or hyperpigmented macules on the trunk.

    Observation:

    • A 32-year-old female patient with a 12-year history of typical tinea versicolor developed new pseudoatrophic lesions within weeks.
    • These lesions appeared distinct from her chronic, spotty manifestations.

    Findings:

    • Mycological and histopathological examinations confirmed the diagnosis of pseudoatrophic tinea versicolor.
    • The patient achieved complete remission of the pseudoatrophic lesions following topical antifungal therapy.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights a rare pseudoatrophic presentation of tinea versicolor.
