Abstract

Rombo syndrome is a rare entity characterized by the presence of atrophoderma vermiculatum of the face, multiple milia, telangiectases, acral erythema and a propensity to develop basal cell carcinomas. We describe a patient whose clinical and histopathological abnormalities are consistent with this diagnosis.
