We are describing a case of a 52-year-old woman diagnosed with reticular erythematous mucinosis. The patient used to come to our

outpatient clinic because of repeated appearance of erythema focus on her body and arms. The first medication with corticosteroids

and antihistamines was not effective enough, after histological identification of diagnosis she was cured with antimalarial drugs which

lead to fast recovery.

Keywords: reticular erythematous mucinosis, antimalarial drugs, deposits of mucin
