General Information of Disease (ID: DIS891VG)

Disease Name Familial progressive hyper- and hypopigmentation
Synonyms FPHH
Definition
Familial progressive hyper- and hypopigmentation is a rare, genetic, skin pigmentation anomaly disorder characterized by progressive, diffuse, partly blotchy, hyperpigmented lesions that are intermixed with multiple caf-au-lait spots, hypopigmented maculae and lentigines and are located on the face, neck, trunk and limbs, as well as, frequently, the palms, soles and oral mucosa. Dispigmentation pattern can range from well isolated caf-au-lait/hypopigmented patches on a background of normal-appearing skin to confetti-like or mottled appearance.
