Linear Focal Elastosis Following Striae Distensae: Further Evidence of Keloidal Repair Process in the Pathogenesis of Linear Focal Elastosis
Linear focal elastosis (LFE) is a rare dermal elastosis characterized by hypertrophic yellowish linear plaques and increased abnormal elastic tissues in the lumbosacral area. Although the pathogenesis of this disorder remains unknown, it may be associated with keloidal repair process (KRP) of elastic tissues in striae distensae (SD), because there have been some reported cases of LFE accompanie...
متن کاملCould a Growth Spurt Cause Linear Focal Elastosis Like Striae Distensae?
Linear focal elastosis (LFE) is characterized by several asymptomatic, yellow, palpable, irregularly indurated, striae-like lines extending horizontally across the middle and lower back. A focal increase in elastic fibers is a hallmark of the disease as seen from biopsy specimens. The pathogenesis of LFE is unclear, as is the association between LFE and striae distensae (SD). However, the preva...

متن کاملLinear Focal Elastosis - A Case Report
Linear focal elastosis (LFE) is a disorder of elastic fibers characterized by palpable, yellow ish, linear striae distributed horizontally over the mid and lower back. Histologically, the find ings are increased amounts of elastic fibers with a fairly thin, wavy, elongated and fragmented morphology. The most important differential diagnosis of LFE is striae distensae which is mainly a disorder ...
متن کاملA mechanochemical model of striae distensae.
Striae distensae, otherwise known as stretch marks, are common skin lesions found in a variety of clinical settings. They occur frequently during adolescence or pregnancy where there is rapid tissue expansion and in clinical situations associated with corticosteroid excess. Heralding their onset is the appearance of parallel inflammatory streaks aligned perpendicular to the direction of skin te...
