Abstract
We report a case of white fibrous papulosis of the neck in a 70-year-old Iranian woman. To date this recently reported entity has only been described in Japanese patients. This asymptomatic eruption characteristically affects the posterior neck. The pale papules are round to oval 2-3 mm in diameter, and not follicular. Histology shows thickened collagen bundles in the superficial and mid-dermis with a normal elastic pattern.Keywords
