We report herein a case of pseudoxanthoma elasticum(PXE) in a 24 year old woman. She had a generalized laxity of the skin which tended to hang in folds along the sides of the trunk and in the axillary areas. There was no similar skin lesion in her family. Histopathological examination revealed clumping and fragmentation of the elastic fibers in the mid and lower dermis. Von Kossa stain showed dense deposition of calcium in these areas. We suspect this case as autosomal recessive type II PXE.

A 12-year-old boy developed cholestatic hepatitis with Steven-Johnson syndrome following the use of amoxicillin. The skin lesion and general condition were improved over 2 weeks, but jaundice was gradually aggrevated. We performed liver biopsy, on 30th hospital day, which showed cholestatic hepatitis. The patient improved gradually and liver function was normalized 5 months later.
