“…2,6,7 Lichen amyloidosis is a type of primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis in which amyloid, a fibrillar proteinaceous material, is deposited solely in the skin, without associated systemic involvement. 8,9 It is characterized by multiple pruritic discrete hyperkeratotic papules that coalesce into plaques, most commonly located on the anterior legs, upper back, forearms, and thighs. [8][9][10] Although the precise cause of LA is uncertain, chronic irritation to the skin resulting in excessive production of degenerate keratins, and their subsequent conversion into amyloid deposits, has been proposed to be an etiologic factor.…”
