White fibrous papulosis of the neck (WFPN) manifests through the presence of numerous solid, persistent, and asymptomatic yellowish-white papules, displaying a distinctive asymmetrical distribution primarily localized on the neck and antecubital fossa. This case report describes the clinical presentation of a 70-year-old female diagnosed with WFPN, highlighting the significant finding of collagen fiber thickening upon histopathological analysis. Despite its predilection for specific anatomical sites, the elusive pathogenesis of WFPN adds diagnostic complexity, emphasizing the need for further research in this unique condition that generally follows a benign course.
颈部白色纤维性丘疹病(WFPN)表现为出现大量坚实、持续且无症状的黄白色丘疹,呈现出独特的不对称分布,主要局限于颈部和肘前窝。本病例报告描述了一名70岁女性被诊断为WFPN的临床表现,突出了组织病理学分析中胶原纤维增厚这一重要发现。尽管WFPN好发于特定解剖部位,但其难以捉摸的发病机制增加了诊断的复杂性,强调了对这种通常呈良性病程的独特病症进行进一步研究的必要性。
