Introduction
Confluent and reticulated papillomatosis (CRP) is an acquired keratinization disorder of uncertain etiology1. The disease was first described in the French literature in the early 20th century by Gougerot and Carteaud and is also known as Gougerot-Carteaud syndrome2. This rare skin condition is reported to occur in different ethnic groups and geographic regions1. Herein we report a case of CRP in a North African patient.
