Abstract
Palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) is a broad entity comprising wide range of hereditary and acquired disorders. Herein, we present a case of 18-year-old female who presented with complaints of palmoplantar thickening since birth and progressive constriction bands around digits for 3 years. On examination, diffuse transgradient honeycomb type of PPK was present. Fibrous constriction bands (pseudoainhum) were present circumferentially around the distal interphalangeal joint of fifth finger and metatarsophalangeal joint of fifth toe bilaterally. Punch biopsy from palms revealed hyperkeratotic, stratified squamous epithelium with vacuolar degeneration and prominent keratohyaline granules. Audiogram was normal. On the basis of history, clinical examination and investigations, a diagnosis of Camisa syndrome was made and the patient was started on oral retinoids. We also discussed case findings of Camisa Syndrome reported in Asian population.
