[The plaque form of polymorphous photodermatosis].

Two patients with the plaque form of photodermatosis are described. Clinical manifestations of this condition are similar to those of discoid lupus erythematosus in appearance, but not to those of prurigo or eczema. The authors suggest that the term 'polymorphic photodermatosis' be used instead of 'solar prurigo' or 'solar eczema', representing, in their opinion, clinical variants of the same disease.
