    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Genetics

    Background:

    • Pseudoatrophoderma colli is a rare papillary dermatosis characterized by atrophic-appearing lesions.
    • Familial occurrence suggests a potential genetic component.

    Observation:

    • A case of familial pseudoatrophoderma colli in a 22-year-old Indian woman.
    • Similar skin eruptions were observed in her sister and father.

    Findings:

    • The patient's condition showed a significant positive response to topical 5% lactic acid ointment.
    • Pseudoatrophoderma colli may be more prevalent than current reports indicate.

    Implications:

    • Consider pseudoatrophoderma colli in the differential diagnosis of pigmented, papillary dermatoses of the neck and upper thorax.
  • Further research is warranted to understand the prevalence and genetic basis of this condition.
