Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Genetics

Background:

  • Partial unilateral lentiginosis (PUL) is a rare pigmentary disorder.
  • This review details clinical experience with nine PUL patients.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To characterize the clinical features of partial unilateral lentiginosis (PUL).
  • To discuss the differential diagnosis of PUL.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of nine patients diagnosed with PUL.
  • Comprehensive literature review on PUL diagnosis and associations.

Main Results:

  • Partial unilateral lentiginosis (PUL) is a rare, benign condition.
  • PUL exhibits no known inheritance pattern.
  • No common abnormalities are associated with PUL.

Conclusions:

  • Distinguishing PUL from nevus spilus and genetic lentiginosis disorders is crucial.
  • Clinical history and physical examination are key diagnostic tools.
