Linear atrophoderma of Moulin (LAM) is a rare dermatosis in childhood and early adolescence. The exact etiology of LAM is still obscure. Several treatment modalities were reported but none was consistently successful. We report a case of LAM in which a favorable outcome was obtained with topical calcipotriol. The relevant literature is also reviewed.
