This study found a potential link between staphylococcal carrier status and dermatitis cruris pustulosa et atrophicans, a chronic folliculitis primarily affecting the legs.

In this retrospective study, researchers described the dermoscopic features of dermatitis cruris pustulosa et atrophicans in 30 patients, finding that follicular-based pustules and other specific features were predominant, with male patients being more affected and primarily involving the lower extremities.

This review discusses the characteristics, geography, and treatment challenges of dermatitis cruris pustulosa et atrophicans in men, emphasizing the need for further research on its etiology and management; it presents no new clinical findings.
