Heterochromia of the Scalp Hair Following Blaschko Lines
Pediatric Dermatology, 2007Abstract: Heterochromia of the scalp hair is characterized by the presence of tufts of hair of a color that differs from the general hair color. It is considered a disorder of pigmentation when the tufts are asymmetrically distributed. We report four patients with isolated congenital tufts of heterochromia in the scalp hair following the Blaschko ...

Lichen Striatus and Lines of Blaschko

Linear Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus in the Lines of Blaschko
Pediatric Dermatology, 2007Abstract: Eleven patients with linear cutaneous lupus erythematosus following the lines of Blaschko have been previously reported in the literature. We describe a child with this entity following Blaschko lines on the trunk. The patient responded to oral hydroxychloroquine therapy combined with topical flurandrenolide tape resulting in resolution with

Blaschko lines and other patterns of cutaneous mosaicism
Clinics in Dermatology, 2011The lines of Blaschko represent a classic pattern of cutaneous mosaicism that can be observed in a wide variety of congenital and acquired skin disorders. This contribution reviews the clinicopathologic spectrum of skin lesions that follow Blaschko lines.

Linear Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus in the Lines of Blaschko
Pediatric Dermatology, 2001The lines of Blaschko describe distribution patterns which may represent embryologic developmental pathways. This distribution may occasionally be followed by some congenital and acquired skin disorders. We describe a child with linear cutaneous lupus erythematosus (LCLE) following Blaschko lines on the face.

Aplasia cutis congenita reminiscent of the lines of Blaschko
Human Genetics, 1992A male newborn showing congenital symmetrical abdominal skin defects and an alopecia on the scalp following a spiral pattern is described. The pattern of distribution of both skin anomalies was reminiscent of the lines of Blaschko, indicating that somatic mosaicism is the most probable cause for the defects.

Transposable Elements and the Lines of Blaschko: A New Perspective
Dermatology, 2002<i>Background:</i> Transposable elements or retrotransposons are particles of retroviral origin that are interspersed in large numbers in the genome of plants and animals. They may affect the activity of adjacent genes by methylation or demethylation, resulting in silencing or activation of gene expression.

[Analogy of Blaschko lines in the eye].
Journal de genetique humaine, 1987In females random X-inactivation and subsequent embryonic development cause a specific distribution of cell clones. This aspect can be seen in carrier women for different X-linked diseases. In such dermopathies the carrier women show striated skin affections following a system of lines, which has been described by A. Blaschko in 1901.
