Presentation
We present a 35-year-old woman, which presented with flexural hyperpigmentation considerate as acanthosis nigricans. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Axillary Lesion
Another interesting point was that the biopsied specimens from the abdomen, neck, and axillary lesions showed somewhat different histopathologic features from typical DDD, suggesting an evolutional sequence. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Histopathology axillary lesion was also similar except for features of follicular plugging [Figure 3] a and b. [e-ijd.org]

Follicular Plugging
Histopathology axillary lesion was also similar except for features of follicular plugging [Figure 3] a and b. [e-ijd.org]
These threadlike growths of the epidermis have the appearance of "antlers" and generally involve the follicle with a follicular plug. A perivascular lymphohistiocytic infiltrate in the papillary dermis and pseudo-horny cysts can also be observed. [slideplayer.com]
Follicular infundibulum may be involved and in some cases there is follicular plugging. [1], [2] In the present study, all three cases had typical triad and histopathologic features. [idoj.in]

Macula
Las lesiones consistian en maculas de color marron oscuro. Tambien presentaba hidradenitis supurativa en las axilas y las ingles. Una hija de la paciente tenia una pigmentacion reticulada similar que afectaba a las axilas. [scinapse.io]
Some patients complain of itching in the macula. These lesions do not change with sun exposure. [slideplayer.com]

Facial Scar
Dowling-Degos disease (DDD) is a rare genetic disease of the skin (reticulate pigmented anomaly), clinically characterized by flexural brown pigmented reticulate macules, comedo-like papules on the back, neck and pitted perioral or facial scars. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
He also had multiple nonacne facial scars predominantly on the nose and malar areas. The patient had overlapping features of RAPK and DDD. In addition, he also had hypopigmented macules and acneiform facial scars. [e-ijd.org]

Facial Redness
redness which begins in childhood as well as the freckle-like pigmentation and numerous dark warty lesions resembling seborrhoeic keratoses on the trunk. [dermnetnz.org]
Treatment
The laser treatment led to a good clinical result. Our case suggest that treatment with the Er:YAG laser might be a successful strategy in Dowling-Degos disease. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Because of its favorable prognosis, differentiation of this benign disorder from acanthosis nigricans, a cutaneous marker of possible or existing internal malignant disease, is highly important. [jamanetwork.com]
Differentiation from acanthosis nigricans is important because of its favorable prognosis. Onset is most often in the 30- to 40-year age range. The disease is slowly progressive, but not life threatening. [cags.org.ae]

(Etiology) Dowling-Degos Disease is most commonly inherited from a single parent (in an autosomal dominant manner); however, the condition may also develop sporadically. [dovemed.com]
Age at disease onset is very important in MS etiologic studies and ought to have been used as a matching variable to potentially control for bias. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
