Abstract:
Punctate palmoplantar keratoderma(PPK), also called Buschke-Fisher-Brauer disease, is an autosomal dominant disease with variable penetrance. Clinically there are multiple tiny punctate keratoses over the entire palmoplantar surfaces. Lesions are discrete and diffuse, may be symmetrical, and may be few or many in number. We report a case of punctate palmoplantar keratoderma in 20-year-old female patient.
