© 2010 The Authors. doi: 10.2340/00015555-0858 Journal Compilation © 2010 Acta Dermato-Venereologica. ISSN 0001-5555 Many dermatoses exhibit lesions distributed in a linear fashion: the linearity may be related to anatomical structures (blood or lymph vessels, or nerves), to mechanical factors (urticarial dermographism, striae distensae cutis, or frictional melanosis) or to some other provocative injuries that are themselves linear (e.g. Köbner’s phenomenon). We report here a case of leukaemia cutis presenting as striae distensae-like linear streaks.
