Core Tip The diagnosis of actinic prurigo can be challenging in the absence of classic clinical manifestations. Actinic prurigo is found in high-altitude living people, mainly in indigenous descendants. Disease onset is usually in childhood and rarely presents only on the lips. This study describes two rare cases from Rio de Janeiro city, Brazil, which is located at sea level. The patients were unaware of possible Indian ancestry. Moreover, actinic prurigo appeared in adulthood and lip lesions were the only manifestation. The associated clinical and histological exams are determinants for the correct diagnosis and successful treatment of this disease.
