AB  - Abdominal  striae  are  linear,  depressed,  pink  or  bluish  scar-like  lesions  that  may  later  become  silver  or  white.  They  are  caused  by  weakening  of  the  elastic  cutaneous  tissues  from  chronic  stretching.  They  most  commonly  occur  on  the  abdomen  but  are  also  seen  on  the  buttocks,  breasts,  axilla,  and  thighs.  Striae  are  commonly  seen  in  obesity,  pregnancy,  rapid  growth  associated  with  puberty,  Cushing  syndrome,  and  chronic  topical  corticosteroid  treatment.
