Is Extrafacial Rosacea or the Coexistence of Rosacea and Polymorph Light Eruption?

Abstract

Rosacea readily diagnosed in the clinical practice and may unusually present with extrafacial involvement. This clinical picture, known as extrafacial rosacea, has been reported to be confused with various diseases besides photodermatoses in the literature. Coexistence with polymorphic light eruption and rosacea have not been reported to date as far as we know, and here we present a case displaying that this coexistence should come to mind in patients if extrafacial rosacea is considered.
