Comedo-like lesions of the palm, present since birth, are studied electronmicroscopically and their eccrine nature demonstrated. We suggest their inclusion under the name porokeratotic eccrine-ostial and dermal duct nevus previously proposed by Abell and Read.

Porokeratotic Eccrine Ostial and Dermal Duct Nevus (PEODDN) is a rare disorder of keratinization that clinically resembles comedo nevus but occurs on the palms and soles and is characterized by cornoid lamella in the histopathology. We hereunder report a young male with mildly itchy papules on the lateral surface of the left foot who was diagnosed with PEODDN upon biopsy of the lesion. We brief...

Porokeratotic eccrine ostial and dermal duct nevus (PEODDN) is a rare eccrine hamartoma, with treatment generally being unsatisfactory.

This 66-year-old Iranian gentle man had a one-year history of asymptomatic keratotic papules with a linear distribution on the skin of his right palm near the wrist. On histopathologic examination-cornoid lamella-like parakeratotic columns above eccrine ducts were observed. The acrosyringium was also dilated. The diagnosis was porokeratotic eccrine ostial and dermal duct nevus. The late-onset d...
