A 35‐year‐old black woman developed numerous vitiligo‐like small hypopigmented macules on the upper and lower extremities. Histologically the lesions were consistent with epidermotropic mycosis fungoides or pagetoid reticulosis. The patient is presented because of a clinical picture unusual for either of the above microscopic diagnoses.
