Abstract | Keratosis palmoplantaris varians of Wachters is a rare hereditary palmoplantar keratoderma with no associated disorders. The genetic basis of the disease is not yet known. We describe a man with this type of keratoderma associated with linear and whorled nevoid hypermelanosis and idiopathic-type acanthosis nigricans. The absence of these associated disorders in other family members affected by keratoderma suggests that there is no related genetic origin for the two conditions. | |
