[Abstract]
Prurigo pigmentosa is an important cause of reticular pruritic rash that has been under-reported in the United States. To ensure proper patient care, it is important for dermatologists to be aware of its presentations and associated factors. Here, we present an uncommon case of prurigo pigmentosa induced by a ketogenic diet and discuss the links between this condition and the state of ketosis, a relationship every provider should be conscious of.
