Abstract

Generalized acquired dermatoses can seldom manifest more prominently or exclusively along the lines of Blaschko. Six individuals with segmental atopic dermatitis (AD) have been reported to date. We present three additional cases of segmental cutaneous manifestations superimposed on generalized AD, and review the relevant literature.
