Case report demonstrates effective topical treatment for linear psoriasis in resource-limited settings, suggesting a diagnostic strategy integrating histology and dermoscopy.
Linear psoriasis can closely mimic ILVEN, complicating diagnosis. Unlike ILVEN, linear psoriasis responds well to topical therapies. In resource‐constrained settings, a histology‐first approach supported by dermoscopy offers a practical and reliable diagnostic strategy. It also reduces unnecessary interventions and avoids dependence on costly, often inaccessible techniques such as immunohistochemistry.
