 Connective tissue nevi of the skin are hamartomas consisting of components of the extracellular matrix, namely collagen, elastic fibres or proteoglycans. Collagenomas, are a type of connective tissue nevi characterized by hamartomatous proliferation of collagen fibres in the dermis, with normal, decreased or increased elastic fibres. Collagenomas, can be familial type or non–familial types which includes eruptive collagenoma and isolated collagenoma. We report a case of eruptive collagenoma, that presented to us with asymptomatic, multiple, firm, rubbery, papules without a positive family history or contributing systemic findings, where histopathologic examination using routine and special stains highlighted proliferation of collagen tissue with decrease elastic fibres.
