Acrokeratoelastoidosis and focal acral hyperkeratosis: Report of two cases

Journal Title: Nasza Dermatologia Online - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 3

Abstract

Acrokeratoelastoidosis (AKE) and focal acral hyperkeratosis (FAH) are rare type of palmoplantar keratodermas. AKE and FAH show similar clinical features and identical histologic dermal alterations. However, FAH lacks elastorrhexis, a major distinguishing feature between the two. We herein report a sporodic AKE in a 62 year-old female and a sporodic FAH in a 41-year-old female.
