Abstract
- Pityriasis rotunda is characterized by asymptomatic, multiple, brownish, round or oval shaped, isolated or confluent, fine scaly patches. It has been associated with a variety of underlying systemic diseases. We report a case of pityriasis rotunda occurring in a 15-year-old female patient with nephrotic syndrome and pulmonary tuberculosis.
