A case of cutis verticis gyrata due to chronic folliculitis was encountered. The skin entity is seen in association with acromegaly, leukaemia, myxoedema, pachydermoperiostosis and dermatolysis. Besides a congenital naevoid form has been described. Two other cases of cutis verticis arata were seen by courtesty of Dr. J C Shroff, in both these cases the aeitiological factor responsible was a severe folliculitis. It is possible that the shaving of the scalp hair by the unhygienic instruments of the street barber has been responsible for the folliculitis, resulting ultimately in the clinical picture of cutis verticis gyrata.
