    Acropigmentatio reticularis is a rare genetic skin condition characterized by reticulate pigmentation on extremities. Recent findings confirm its presence outside Japan, identifying it as an autosomal dominant disease.

    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Medical Genetics

    Context:

    • Acropigmentatio reticularis, a rare reticulate skin pigmentation, was first described in Japan in 1953.
    • The condition presents as small, angular, depressed brown macules on the extensor surfaces of distal extremities.
    • It is often familial and considered an autosomal dominant disorder.

    Purpose:

    • To report on the global identification of Acropigmentatio reticularis.
    • To confirm the identity of familial reticulate acropigmentation found internationally with the condition described in Japan.

    Summary:

    • Acropigmentatio reticularis is a distinct skin condition with a characteristic reticulate pattern.
    • Familial cases of reticulate acropigmentation have been identified in South Iran and England.
    • These international cases are confirmed to be identical to Acropigmentatio reticularis, establishing its presence beyond Japan.

    Impact:

    • Confirms Acropigmentatio reticularis occurs outside Japan.
    • Highlights the autosomal dominant inheritance pattern of this rare skin condition.
    • Broadens the understanding of the geographical distribution and genetic basis of Acropigmentatio reticularis.
