Abstract
- Eruptive collagenoma is a connective tissue nevus, which can occur even if there is no family history of the condition. We report a case of eruptive collagenoma in a 44-year-old woman, who had had multiple, variable-sized, yellowish papules on her neck since childhood. The histopathologic findings showed thickened, homogenized collagen fibers and decreased elastic fibers.
