Abstract
Case Report. Acquired reactive perforating dermatosis (ERPD) has above all been described to be associated with diabetes mellitus and chronic renal failure. This rare disorder belongs to the group of the primary perforating dermatoses like hyperkeratosis follicularis et parafollicularis in cutem penetrans (Kyrle's disease), perforating folliculitis (PF), elastosis perforans serpiginosa (EPS) and hereditary reactive perforating dermatosis of childhood (HRPD). We report on a 75-year old woman with marked ERPD associated with a long-standing Psoriasis vulgaris. Successful treatment with orally administered allopurinol is demonstrated. We stress the fact that ERPD belongs to the group of the primary perforating dermatoses.
