description Fibroelastolytic papulosis of the neck (FEPN) consists of two disorders: white fibrous papulosis of the neck (WFPN) and pseudoxanthoma elasticum-like papillary dermal elastolysis (PXE-PDE). The neck and supraclavicular areas are frequently involved; however, axillary involvement is significantly more rare, especially for white fibrous papulosis. Herein, we present an unusual case of white fibrous papulosis of the axillae, in addition to the neck, in a Caucasian woman.
