Abstract
- Localized Darier's disease (DD) is a rare variant of DD. The disease is characterized by multiple hyperkeratotic papules in a unilateral, linear, zosteriform or Blaschkoid distribution with the histological features of classical DD. Unlike DD, which presents as a generalized condition, localized DD lacks family history and other clinical findings suggestive of DD such as distinctive nail abnormalities and keratotic papules on the palms and soles. Herein, we describe a case of localized DD in a 31-year old Korean man on the perianal area that was treated with topical retinoid cream.
