Abstract

Linear atrophoderma of Moulin (ALM) is a rare entity, initially described in five patients by Moulin in 1992. This entity typically affects children and adolescents with no relevant personal or family history. Its character is self-limited, with a good prognosis, whose affectation is predominantly aesthetic, for which there is no specific treatment so far. We present the case of a male patient with a picture of several years with lesions compatible with MLA.
