Lichen amyloidosus (LA) is a type of primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis characterized by multiple pruritic discrete hyperkeratotic papules with amyloid deposition in the papillary dermis. Clinical regression is usually difficult to achieve, even after treatment. In this study, we report a case of an adult man with LA associated with atopic dermatitis (AD) which was successfully treated with narrowband ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) phototherapy, topical corticosteroids and an oral antihistamine. This case suggests that NB-UVB phototherapy may be a useful adjuvant for LA associated with AD.
