ABSTRACT

Reticulate acropigmentation of Dohi (RAD) is a pigmentary disorder classified as a dyschromatosis, localized in the extremities, which inheritance generally is autosomal dominant, or more rarely, recessive. It was first described in Japan and, although of sporadic occurrence, it can mimic many diseases such as: acral vitiligo, hypochromiant contact dermatitis and Dowling-Degos disease. We discuss a case of Dohi's acropigmentation, in a male, without family history, focusing on the importance of its differential diagnosis.
