elastosis perforans serpiginosa
perforating elastosis a chronic type of acquired perforating dermatosis characterized by channels in the epidermis into which abnormal elastic tissue perforates and is extruded into the dermis. On the skin there are flesh-colored keratopapular eruptions and clustered arc-shaped serpiginous lesions. It usually occurs in young males, alone or with more widespread disease, on the sides and nape of the neck, or less often on the upper arms, face, trunk, or elsewhere.
