Résumé

Papular mucinosis is characterised by primary mucin deposition in the dermis. The classification distinguishes between the localised form and the systemic form, which alone can result in complications, but this classification occasionally proves to be inadequate. Herein we report the progression of papular mucinosis, initially atypical due to the absence of cutaneous sclerosis and of misleading granulomatous histological features, which subsequently developed into characteristic scleromyxedema.
