Abstract:
Reticulate pigmentary disorders are autosomal dominant pigmentary disorders caused by abnormalities in the keratin 5 and keratin 14 genes. Here, we report three cases of reticulate hyperpigmentation disorders with clinical overlaps of the reticulate acropigmentation of Kitamura, Dowling-Degos disease (DDD), and dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria (DSH), all three having limited treatment options.
