Abstract
Dowling-Degos disease is a reticulate pigmentary disorder of the flexures associating prominent comedone-like lesions and pitted scars. Diagnosis is based on clinical and histopathological examination, which allows this entity to be differentiated from other reticulate pigmentary disorders. A literature review failed to provide any indication that PUVA therapy either aggravates or reveals Dowling-Degos disease, a finding which we feel merits mention.
