AI Article Synopsis
- An 8-year-old girl presented with asymptomatic hyperpigmented plaques that developed in a linear pattern on her body, starting at age 1.
- The condition began with an itching papule on her ankle which grew into larger plaques over a few months and eventually appeared on her hands and the left side of her body.

Article Abstract
An 8-year-old girl was seen for asymptomatic flat to raised hyperpigmented plaques distributed in a linear pattern over multiple segments of her body present 1 year of age. The eruption initially started as an itchy papule over the left lateral malleolus, which developed into hyperpigmented plaque and gradually extended linearly over a period of 2-3 months to involve the leg. Over the next year, similar lesions appeared on the hands and left side of the body. Most of the lesions progressed in size; however, a few lesions on the extremities resolved partially, becoming hyperpigmentation. There was no further progression of the eruption in the following 6 months. There was no history of erosions, blisters, or comedone-like lesions. There was no history of developmental delay or mental retardation. There was no relevant family history. (. 2022;20:220-223).
