Papular Spreaded Necrobiosis Lipoidica: a rare clinical presentation of this pathology

Abstract

A 69‐year‐old Caucasian woman suffering from long‐term diabetes mellitus type II was referred to our dermatology department with cutaneous lesions that appeared 3 years before. They were itchy and non‐tender, and spreaded progressively, with no history of previous trauma. Examination revealed multiple erythematous to yellowish papules on the lower legs, which merged in plaques, of varying shapes and sizes (Fig.1).
