Article Synopsis
- Atrophoderma of Pasini and Pierini is a rare, benign skin condition characterized by single or multiple asymptomatic atrophic plaques, predominantly affecting women of European descent, usually appearing in their 20s or 30s.
- Recent reports suggest a potential link between this condition and COVID-19, with a notable case of rapid progression post-infection observed in a 63-year-old female patient who was initially misdiagnosed with morphea.
- Accurate diagnosis relies on histopathological verification and clinical examination, as the condition often resembles morphea and may lead to treatment delays if not correctly identified.

Article Synopsis
- Atrophoderma of Pasini and Pierini is a skin condition that results in depressed, well-defined plaques due to changes in dermal collagen.
- Diagnosis often involves comparing affected skin to healthy skin from the same area, as the histopathological changes are not very distinct.
- High-frequency ultrasound can effectively diagnose atrophic skin changes, and a case study demonstrates its utility in supporting both clinical and histopathological diagnoses.

Article Synopsis
- Atrophoderma of Pasini and Pierini is a skin condition characterized by sharply defined, darkened patches that appear slightly depressed, which can merge into larger areas of atrophy.
- First identified in 1923 and 1936, this condition differs from other skin diseases due to its unique morphology and clinical presentation.
- Although initially linked to Borrelia burgdorferi infection, current theories suggest that genetic, neurogenetic, and immunological factors may contribute to its development, as illustrated by a patient with widespread atrophic skin lesions and no known tick bite history.

Article Synopsis
- - Idiopathic Atrophoderma of Pasini and Pierini is a skin condition that should be considered when a patient has an asymptomatic atrophic skin plaque.
- - It can be difficult to distinguish this condition from Linear Atrophoderma of Moulin and morphea.
- - Diagnosis can be aided by observing specific features and performing a tissue biopsy.

Background: The diagnosis of idiopathic atrophoderma of Pasini and Pierini (IAPP) relies on typical clinical features, particularly distinctive pigmented ovular/round depressed plaques. Histologic examination often reveals no obvious changes, but patterns of collagen distribution, using multiphoton imaging and second harmonic generation can help track hidden details of tissue organization contributing to atrophy.
Objective: To identify histologic features that distinguish IAPP from unaffected skin.

Linear atrophoderma of Moulin (LAM) is an acquired skin condition that manifests in early childhood and adolescence. It likely represents a form of cutaneous mosaicism that presents with linear, hyperpigmented and atrophic lesions appearing on the trunk and limbs. Its clinical appearance varies and may closely resemble that of atrophoderma of Pasini and Pierini (APP) and linear scleroderma.
