Secondary anetoderma following lichen planus
Anetoderma is commonly characterized by well-circumscribed areas of slack or baggy skin related to the loss of elastic fibers in the dermis. It has associations with some well-defined skin lesions, such as acne vulgaris and varicella. We report a 67-year-old woman with clinical and pathologically confirmed anetoderma at sites of previously documented lichen planus.
