Abstract
-
We describe two cases of acral persistent papular mucinosis. The characteristic
findings include discrete papules on the extensor surfaces of the hands and wrists, mucous
deposits within the dermis, persistence or slow progression for several years. APPM may be
considered as the disease entity in the same spectrum with lichen myxedematosus.
