  Amyloid deposits were shown histopathologically in both hyperpigmented and hypopigmented macules. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Clinically, it presents with diffuse brownish pigmentation with hypopigmented macules and many brownish scattered lichenoid papules with normal developmental milestones. [1], [2], [3], [4] The exact etiology of the disease is unknown but mostly suggestive [e-ijd.org]

  In addition to the hyper- and hypopigmented macules, diffuse hyperpigmented small papules were noted (patient 4). [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
