ABSTRACT

A 28 years old woman who complains because the presence of atrophic macules and papules appearing progresivelly in the last 8 years is repor-ted. The lesions were asymptomatic and they were located in the trunk and arms. An excisional biopsy was performed. Ordein stain revealed animportant decrease and destruction of the elastical tissue in reticular dermis. Posible related causes and associated conditions were excluded andthe diagnose of a primary anetoderma were stablished. We like to emphasize this case report because it is an uncommon disease and at the sametime we propose a medical protocol for its study.
