Papular acantholytic dyskeratosis (PAD), often found to occur in the vulvar or anogenital area, is an exceedingly rare skin condition that usually presents in adulthood and features multiple smooth skin-colored or grayish-white papules with or without pruritus. Although the pathogenesis of PAD is unknown, PAD may be associated with mutations in ATP2C1 and ATP2A2 genes. Here, we report on an 18-year-old female patient with multiple gray-white flat papules in the anogenital area.
