Dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria (DUH) is a rare pigmentary genodermatosis mostly reported from Japan. It is usually characterized by widespread hyper/hypopigmented macules all over the body. Here, we report the case of a patient from Iran who presented with disseminated hyper and hypopigmented lesions over the trunk, neck, and extremities since the age of eight. To the best of our knowledge, to date, there has been only one reported case of DUH from Iran.
遗传性泛发性色素异常症(DUH)是一种罕见的色素性遗传性皮肤病,大多报道来自日本。其通常特征为全身广泛分布的色素沉着过度/色素沉着不足斑。在此,我们报告一例来自伊朗的患者,该患者自8岁起在躯干、颈部和四肢出现弥漫性色素沉着过度和色素沉着不足病变。据我们所知,迄今为止,伊朗仅报道过一例DUH病例。
