Dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria is an infrequently occurring genodermatosis with a peculiar pigmentary change, consisting of varying sized hyperpigmented macules mingled with hypopigmented lesions to give an overall impression of mottling. We hereby report a case of dyschromatosis universialis hereditaria in a child with no family history of the disorder.
