Abstract
Confluent and reticulate papillomatosis is a definite entity and is not a superficial fungal disease. It must be distinguished from pityriasis versicolor as well as acanthosis nigricans and cutaneous amyloidosis. The therapeutic efficacy of oral cyclines (doxycycline or minocycline) appears to be an important distinguishing feature that can serve as a diagnostic criterion.
