Abstract:
To the Editor. - An 18-year-old female presented at
our polyclinic with complaints of widespread yellow-brown skin lesions. This had started 6 years
earlier on her arm and within a short time had
spread over her whole body in the form of slightly
itchy yellowish blisters. For last one year she developed similar lesions inside her mouth, in the genital area and in her eyes. There was no similar
family history. Dermatological examination showed generalised distribution of yellow-brown papules and plaques over the skin [Figure 1]. There
were many coloured mucosal papules in the nasopharynx with hypopharynx, oropharynx and
buccal mucosal surfaces [Figure 2].
