Acropigmentation of Kitamura with immigration delay disease: A rare entity

Abstract

Reticulate acropigmentation of Kitamura (RAK) is a rare, autosomal dominant disorder first described in Japan characterised by a reticulate pattern of slightly atrophic, angulated, hyperpigmented macules affecting the acral areas of the body. We hereby report a case of RAK in a young Indian male with adermatoglyphia that has not been previously reported in the literature.
