Abstract
Tts clinical appearance and its very elective localization on the border of the lip allow us to distinguish a particular type of Mibelli's porokeratosis (MP). The study of three personal cases and four similar cases found in the literature<sup>1-4</sup>permitted us to delineate the clinical, topographic, and morphologic features of MP of the lips. <h3>Report of Cases</h3> The patients ranged in age from 10 to 54 years. In these seven cases, all of the patients were women. The lesion began as a small punctiform keratosis, developed progressively, and attained its final diameter within six to 12 months (5 mm to 2 cm). Morphologically, the lesion essentially consisted of a central area in which the skin was slightly atrophic and depressed, smoother and sometimes keratotic. The essential morphologic feature was the presence at the periphery of a very thin and regular keratotic border forming a filiform line, sometimes 1 mm
