Mid-dermal elastolysis (MDE) is a very rare and acquired skin condition. MDE has a variety of clinical manifestations that can be presented with a reticular erythematous patch with telangiectasis, perifollicular popular protrusions, or finely wrinkled skin. A biopsy is always necessary to rule out other potential elastic fiber disorders. In this case study, a 33-year-old female with an odd MDE presentation in her neck area is examined. No contributing factors, apart from exposure to sunlight, could be gleaned from the patient's history. The patient didn't benefit from the application of various types of topical agents or any other therapies to lessen the size and advancement of the lesion. In this distinct case, we discuss clinical and histological findings and the treatment plan offered, as well as include a concise review of specific past literature.
真皮中层弹性纤维溶解症（MDE）是一种非常罕见的后天性皮肤病。MDE有多种临床表现，可表现为伴有毛细血管扩张的网状红斑、毛囊周围丘疹样突起或皮肤细纹。活检对于排除其他潜在的弹性纤维疾病总是必要的。在本病例研究中，对一名颈部出现奇特MDE表现的33岁女性进行了检查。除了暴露于阳光下外，从患者病史中未发现其他相关因素。患者使用各种外用药物或任何其他疗法来减轻病变的大小和进展均无效果。在这个独特的病例中，我们讨论了临床和组织学发现以及提供的治疗方案，并对既往的特定文献进行了简要综述。
