Abstract
White fibrous papulosis of the neck is a rare entity, with a benign course and unknown pathogenesis. It is clinically characterized by the appearance of firm, persistent, usually asymptomatic, non-follicular papules located on the neck. We present the case of a 72-year-old patient who presented pruritic lesions on the neck whose biopsy was compatible with this entity.
