Darier′s disease is an uncommon genodermatosis characterized by keratotic papules in seborrheic distribution. The disease can rarely present in unilateral zosteriform pattern, as a mosaic form following the Blaschko′s line. We present a 35-year-old woman with zosteriform pattern of Darier′s disease over right infra mammary region. The lesions occurred strictly during summers. Histologically, suprabasal acantholysis with abundant dyskeratotic cells were seen.
