The boy and the elder sister had been suffering for over 4 years, while the younger sister was in her first year of the disease. The clinical pictures were alike: many circular or oval patches of furfuraceous desquamation scattered over the trunk and ...

To assess the prevalence of relapses of pityriasis rosea (PR), a retrospective cohort study investigated all PR cases diagnosed in Genoa between 2000 and 2013 and followed them up to today. Of 570 cases, 21 (3.7%) relapsed. Most of them had a single episode, but 4 had two episodes and 2 had three episodes.

Pityriasis rotunda is a rare dermatosis characterized by circular, dusty scaling, dyschromic patches, quite asymptomatic and mostly described in Japanese and blacks. The authors have seen three cases of pityriasis rotunda in a Sardinian family that are to be added to two other similar reports. The patients were all in good health.

Abstract: We conducted a prospective study of 20 patients with pig. menting pityriasis alba (PPA) over a period of two years. Characteristic morphology revealed a central zone of bluish hyperpigmentation surrounded by a hypopigmented, slightly scaly halo of variable width. All patients displayed lesions on the face. Concomitant extrafacial Involvement

Dermatology, 1985
Six cases of pityriasis rosea with atypical morphology and distribution of the eruption are reported. The eruption did not show a typical ‘Christmas-tree’ arrangement, confined to the trunk and proximal parts of the extremities. However, the histology of the eruption revealed dyskeratotic cells in the epidermis and extravasated erythrocytes in the ...
