  • Title: Papular elastorrhexis, a distinctive entity?
    Author: Del Pozo J, Martínez W, Sacristán F, Fernández-Jorge B, Fonseca E.
    Journal: Am J Dermatopathol; 2008 Apr; 30(2):188-90. PubMed ID: 18360129.
    Abstract:
    Papular elastorrhexis is a rare entity of elastic tissue characterized by multiple white papules usually located on the trunk. We report a case of papular elastorrhexis in a 22-year-old man with sparse lesions and discuss the main controversial facts in this entity: its consideration as an independent disease or as an incomplete form of Buschke-Ollendorff syndrome and the confusion with and its possible inclusion as a variant of elastic tissue naevi.
