Overview
Linear atrophoderma of Moulin (LAM) is an acquired unilateral dermatitis localized along the Blaschko's lines. , involving the trunk and the limbs. It is, presumably, a rare cutaneous form of mosaicism.[1] This disease was first referred to as Atrophoderma of Moulin after Dr.Moulin who first reported it in 1992[2] then was renamed as linear atrophoderma of Moulin.[3] Only a few dozen cases have been described; for this reason, LAM is considered to be a very rare disorder.[4][5][6]
