ABSTRACT

Linear atrophoderma of Moulin (LAM). It is a self-limited and rare dermatological disorder. There are only about 36 reported cases to this day. It usually manifests during childhood or adolescence, but it has been demonstrated that is not limited by these age ranges. lam is characterized by unilateral, hyperpigmented and depressed, band-like atrophic skin lesions, that follows Blaschko’s lines. It has been postulated that it is the result of a somatic mosaicism. The differential diagnosis includes the atrophodermia of Pasini and Pierini. Histopathologically is characterized by an irregular and moderate hyperpigmentation of the basal layer of the epidermis and normal dermis. There is no established treatment regimen for LAM. The progression of lesions usually stops within a few months, with aesthetics remaining as the major concern. We present a 14-year-old female with all the clinical and histopathological characteristics described by Moulin
