Elastosis perforans serpiginosa in a case of pseudoxanthoma elasticum: A rare association.
Indian Dermatology Online Journal 2016 March
Elastosis perforans serpiginosa (EPS), characterized by transepidermal elimination of fragmented elastic fibers, clinically presents as hyperkeratotic papules. EPS is classified into three types: (1) Idiopathic; (2) reactive, with associated connective tissue diseases such as pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, cutis laxa, Marfan syndrome, osteogenesis imperfecta, Down's syndrome; (3) the one that is induced by D-penicillamine. A rare association of EPS with PXE, which is primarily a defect of transmembrane transporter protein with accumulation of certain metabolic compounds and secondary calcification of elastic fibers has been documented in the literature. We report a case of PXE with associated lesions that were histopathologically compatible with EPS.
