Abstract
Schamberg's disease or progressive pigmented purpuric dermatitis is a chronic discoloration of the skin which usually affects the lower limbs and spreads. This disease is more common in males and may be seen in any age. Schamberg's disease is caused by fragile and inflamed superficial blood vessels which allow red blood cells to leak into the skin. The red blood cells in the skin break down to release their iron, the hemosiderin of which gives rise to brownish color. We had a case of Schamberg’s purpura, which was confirmed by biopsy.
