Abstract
Erythtomelanosis follicularis faciei et colli is a rare disease with unknown cause and characterisitically predominately appears in adolescent males. It is a dermatosis characterized by a triad of clinical findings consisted of follicular papules occurring on the neck and face, erythema with marked borders and hyperpigmentation, and occasionally is accompanied by pilar keratosis on the arms. We decided to report the present case because she was followed up for a long period of time with a misdiagnosis of atopic dermatitis. The disease started at a very early age and it was reported that her grand-mother and aunt had similar discomforts.
