Primary anetoderma is a rare elastolytic disorder characterized by well-circumscribed flaccid, atrophic macules and patches caused by focal loss of elastic fibers. Anetoderma is divided into two forms: primary, which is idiopathic and occurs on clinically normal skin, and secondary, which follows a prior dermatosis. Although it is indolent, the lesions of anetoderma persist and may be associated with significant aesthetic changes causing potential psychosocial difficulties. Anetoderma has been successfully treated with ablative, pulsed dye and non-ablative fractionated lasers. Patients with secondary anetoderma and anetoderma limited to a relatively small body surface area may be more amenable to laser treatment than patients with extensive involvement.

Background: Epidermodysplasia verruciformis is a rare genetic disorder characterized by development of lesions associated with HPV#5 or HPV#8 in early childhood; malignant transformation occurs in approximately half of individuals during adulthood. Objective: Our goal was to study the presence and spectrum of EV-HPV types in Brazilian EV patients, a population that had never been studied in this regard. Patients and MethodsForty-one biopsies from different lesions (benign and skin tumors) and one biopsy from clinically normal skin from each of 20 Brazilian patients with EV were studied for HPV typing using nested PCR. Results: EV-HPV DNA was detected in all 41 skin lesions of the patients and was also identified in specimens considered as normal skin from 8 patients (40%). In this study HPV-EV 25 was the most prevalent (70%), and HPV 14d (67%) was highly associated with malignant lesions. Conclusion: EV-HPV 25 was the most prevalent in our study. The noteworthy association of EV-HPV type 14d with skin cancers suggests its possible oncogenic role in malignant transformation in this population.
