Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli is an erythematous pigmentary disease involving the follicles, characterized by a reddish-brown, sharply demarcated, symmetrical discoloration involving the preauricular and maxillary regions.[1]: 775–6
Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli is characterized by patches of erythema (with or without telangiectasia), follicular papules (follicular plugging), and bilateral and symmetrical hyperpigmentation (reddish-brown pigmentation) that start on the preauricular areas and cheeks and can eventually migrate to the submandibular portions of the neck.[2]
Causesedit
Although the cause of this disorder is unknown, familial cases, spontaneous mutation, and an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance have all been documented.[3][4]
Diagnosisedit
Histopathologic observations include vascular dilatation in the upper dermis, hyperkeratosis, follicular plugging, and enhanced basal membrane pigmentation.[5]
