چکیده
Pigmented purpuric dermatoses (PPD) are a group of disorders which have histopathologically similar but morphologically different appearance. The five main clinical subtypes of PPD has been described. The perivascular lymphocytic infiltration of superficial dermal vessels with extravasations of red blood cells are common histopathological characteristics for all types of PPD. The etiopathogenesis of disease remains obscure yet [1,2]. We report a case of purpura annularis telangiectodes of Majocchi (PATM), a very rare type of PPD, with possible drug etiology of diclofenac sodium.
