Retiform parapsoriasis is a cutaneous condition, considered to be a type of large-plaque parapsoriasis.[1] It is characterized by widespread, ill-defined plaques on the skin, that have a net-like or zebra-striped pattern.[2] Skin atrophy, a wasting away of the cutaneous tissue, usually occurs within the area of these plaques.[1]
