Punctate Palmoplantar Keratodermas: Case Reports and A Review of the Literature and Terminology
Keratodermas encompass a wide spectrum of disorders of keratinization that may be acquired or hereditary. We present two cases of focal acral hyperkeratosis (FAH), a subtype of punctate palmoplantar keratoderma. We review the literature and attempt to clarify the confusing classification of the heritable punctate palmoplantar keratodermas.
متن کاملPalmoplantar keratodermas: clinical and genetic aspects.
Palmoplantar keratodermas comprise a diverse group of acquired and hereditary disorders marked by excessive thickening of the epidermis of palms and soles. Early onset and positive family history suggest a genetic cause. While hereditary forms of palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) may represent the sole or dominant clinical feature, they may also be associated with other ectodermal defects or extra...
متن کاملHereditary palmoplantar keratoderma type papulosa in Slovenia.
BACKGROUND Hereditary palmoplantar keratodermas (HPPK) are relatively frequent in Slovenia; however, the papulosa type of HPPK is rare. Epidemiological data are scarce; a population study in Croatia revealed a prevalence of 1.17/100,000 inhabitants.

متن کاملIdentification of a locus for type I punctate palmoplantar keratoderma on chromosome 15q22-q24.
BACKGROUND The identification of the molecular basis of disorders of keratinisation has significantly advanced our understanding of skin biology, revealing new information on key structures in the skin, such as the intermediate filaments, desmosomes, and gap junctions. Among these disorders, there is an extraordinarily heterogeneous group known as palmoplantar keratodermas (PPK), for which only...
متن کاملUnilateral Linear Punctate Palmoplantar Keratoderma: A Case Report
Punctate palmoplantar keratoderma (PPPK) is a rare entity with an estimated prevalence rate of 1.17/100,000. PPPK usually presents with bilateral asymptomatic, tiny, hyperkeratotic punctate papules and plaques on the palmoplantar surface. Among the PPPK varieties, the linear presentation is much rarer, and so far there have been only 3 case reports. Here, we report the case of a 27-year-old fem...
