Abstract

A case of unilateral axillar granular parakeratosis in a woman is presented. A macular hyperpigmented lesion was the initial clinical presentation and resolved completely. The physiopathology and unusual macular presentation are discussed. The macules could correspond to an initial form or a clinical variant of the disease. The patient received topical keratolytics with resolution of the lesions.
