Abstract

Cutis laxa is an uncommon disorder characterized clinically laxitiy of the skin, which hangs in loose folds, by the loss of dermal elastic tissue. We report a case only neck localized of cutis laxa that no systemic involvement was diagnosed. The skin laxity was preceded by episodes of itching and swelling on her neck. When the patient applied to our clinic, she was considered as a case of localized cutis laxa, and the patient was recovered by neck lift operation. Histopathology showed that the elastic fibers were lost in the skin areas of cutis laxa and decreased in adjacent skin. The pathogenetic relationship with any other disorder or intake of related drug could not found.
