An 81‐year‐old‐female patient presented with a 2 week history of erythematous to violaceous lichenoid papules and plaques exhibiting a reticulated pattern on the ‘‘V’' area of the chest and dorsal hands. Fine, whitish reticulated networks were present over the surface of many well developed papules. The lesions were sharply demarcated and moderately pruritic ( Fig. 1 ).
