Abstract:
Multiple minute digitate hyperkeratosis (MMDH) is a rare disorder of keratinization characterized clinically by multiple, tiny, spiky, keratotic papules. Herein, we report a new case of MMDH. There was no family history of similar lesions or a personal history of underlying disease. The lesions were limited to the face and associated with acne vulgaris. We consider this case as a postinflammatory type of MMDH.
