Article Synopsis
- Confluent reticulated papillomatosis (CRP), terra-firme-forme-dermatitis (TFFD), and dermatitis neglecta (DN) are benign skin conditions that cause hyperpigmented lesions, making them difficult to distinguish and treat based on appearance alone.
- A study of 62 patients revealed distinct dermoscopic patterns for each condition, with CRP showing a cerebriform pattern, while TFFD and DN presented patterns resembling a “mosaic” and “cornflake-like” appearance, respectively.
- The findings suggest dermoscopy is an effective, noninvasive tool for diagnosing these similar-looking conditions, helping physicians identify them based on unique features like the color and formation of pigment globules.

Article Synopsis
- - Confluent and reticulated papillomatosis (CRP) is a rare skin condition mainly affecting young adults, characterized by persistent brown papules and plaques, particularly in skin folds, though its exact cause is unclear.

- - Histological analysis of the affected skin showed changes like hyperkeratosis and sweat duct obstruction, suggesting potential links between the patient's hypohidrosis, reticulated lesions, and obesity-related sweat dysregulation.

- Dermoscopy is gaining traction not only for diagnosing skin cancers but also for evaluating various pigmentary disorders, as recent studies have shown its effectiveness in this area.
- A comprehensive review of literature from PubMed examined numerous pigmentary conditions, including melasma, vitiligo, and several others, to explore their unique dermoscopic features.
- The findings suggest that dermoscopy can help clinicians differentiate between these disorders, which can be challenging to diagnose clinically and may cause significant emotional distress for patients.
