Two cases of reticulate acropigmentation of Dohi are reported, both patients demonstrating the typical features of this disorder. Reticulate acropigmentation of Dohi (dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria or symmetrical dyschromatosis of the extremities) is characterized by pigmented and depigmented macules mixed in a reticulate pattern on the extremities. It was first described in 12 patients from Japan, where it appears to be a well-established condition. Patients have been reported from Europe and a family from India has recently been described. We report two cases of reticulate acropigmentation of Dohi occurring in an Afro-Caribbean and an Indian patient, in order to alert clinicians to the possibility that this disorder may present in the UK.
本文报告了两例土肥网状肢端色素沉着症病例，两名患者均表现出该疾病的典型特征。土肥网状肢端色素沉着症（遗传性对称性色素异常症或四肢对称性色素沉着异常症）的特征是四肢出现色素沉着和色素脱失的斑片，呈网状分布。该病最初在12名日本患者中被描述，在日本似乎是一种已被充分认识的病症。欧洲也有相关病例报告，最近还描述了一个来自印度的家族病例。我们报告了一例非洲加勒比裔患者和一例印度裔患者发生土肥网状肢端色素沉着症的病例，以提醒临床医生注意该疾病可能在英国出现。
