Unilateral diffuse plantar keratoderma: An example of cutaneous mosaicism?

Abstract

Palmoplantar keratodermas (PPKs) are a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by thickening of the epidermis of the palms and soles. Clinically, three forms can be seen: Diffuse, focal, and punctate. Although usually manifesting on bilateral palms and soles, a unilateral presentation has been reported 1-3.
