Wilson's disease (WD) is characterized by predominantly hepatic, neurological, ophthalmic, and psychiatric manifestations. Early clinical features are nonspecific and sometimes maybe misleading in establishing a definitive diagnosis, especially in younger patients and with concurrent other infections. In contrast to this, dermatological manifestations of WD including skin, mucosa, nail, and hair examination may be indicative of a diagnosis of disease, particularly in early cases. Here, we have reported dermoscopic and trichoscopic findings of the 11-year-old male patient.
