Abstract

Linear porokeratosis is a rare variant of porokeratosis, which usually occurs along the Blaschko’s lines in children. Many treatment modalities are currently used to reduce this distressing cosmetic condition, but none of the therapies is universally accepted. Here, I report the case of a 13-year-old female with linear porokerato sis, which was treated with a 532-nm Q-switched neodymium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet laser.
