Abstract | Middermal elastolysis (MDE) is an acquired idiopathic non-inflammatory dermatosis, clinically characterized areas of fine wrinkling of the skin, and histopathologically exhibiting a middermal loss of elastic fibers. We report two cases of idiopathic middermal elastolysis recently observed in our department. After considering the main differential diagnoses, we discuss the etiopathogenetic hypothesis underlying the most appropriate therapies. | |
