The article presents a case study of an 18-year-old male who visited a dermatology outpatient clinic with asymptomatic patchy hyperpigmentation on his torso and upper limb and diagnosed with hyperpigmentation along lines of blaschko. Topics discussed include his systemic examination, his histopathological examination that revealed melanization of the basal layer as well as pigmentation, and mosaicism as the cause of pigmentary disorders along the lines of Blaschko.
