Asymptomatic golden macule on the ankle

Jennifer Clay Cather, MD

A 35-year-old man presented with a 4-week history of an asymptomatic golden-brown macule on his right lateral ankle (Figures 1 and 2). He first noted the lesion one morning when he was pulling on his socks, and the lesion had not changed in color or size since it appeared. He reported no associated trauma. His past medical history was unremarkable, and he took no medications.
