Cutaneous findings and treatment responses of lipoid proteinosis patients.

In addition to the existing literature on dermatological manifestations of LP, hypopigmented lesions and atrophoderma vermiculatum-like lesions can also be observed in these patients. We believe that short-term systemic steroid therapy for vesiculobullous lesions can be considered for treatment. We think prospective studies with more patients and requiring long-term follow-up are needed regarding the effectiveness of acitretin treatment.
