Reticular pigmented anomaly of the flexures (also known as "Dark dot disease," and "Dowling–Degos' disease") is a fibrous anomaly of the flexures or bending parts of the axillae, neck and inframammary/sternal areas.[1]:856 It is an autosomal-dominant pigmentary disorder that may appear in adolescence or adulthood. This condition is due to mutations in structural/desmosomal proteins found within stratified squamous epithelium.[2]

Dark dot disease is associated with KRT5.[3]
