Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We present female twins with reticular erythematous mucinosis (REM syndrome). Remarkably, the lesions developed in both sisters almost at the same time in the same locations after UV exposure. Reports of familial manifestations of REM syndrome are very rare and an association to a distinct HLA constellation has not been proven. Our report clearly suggests a genetic predisposition.
