The cause of reticular pigmentation spots:

The cause of this disease is unknown. In 1992, Heimer et al reported a DPR family of nine generations of nine patients (two of whom were confirmed by doctors) who believed that DPR was autosomal dominant. Others have reported cases of sisters, siblings and cousins or uncles. In this case, the HLA classification shows A2-B48/A3-B15, which is different from the haplotype of the patient's father (A9-B22/A2-B46), but it is not certain whether it is a father or not, and it is difficult to determine the family. For example, genetic or scatter.
