Abstract

Mid dermal elastolysis is an exceedingly rare condition. Only three cases have been reported previously. The disease manifests as sharply marginated plaques of fine wrinkles of various size that give the skin an aged appearance. It is characterized histologically by a complete absence of mid dermal elastic fibers and lack of any inflammatory infiltrate. Two new cases are reported, and the other cases are reported.
