Abstract | This is a report on three cases of keratosis palmaris et plantaris cum degeneratione granulosa Voerner. The first case is a 40-year-old female patient who has palmoplantar keratoses since her first year of life. The diagnosis of Voerner's disease was made in 1983, in spite of negative family data It was confirmed on the basis of the clinical picture, the course of the disease and especially on the basis of rare histological symptom, epidermolytic hyperkeratosis. The final confirmation is represented by the patient's son, our second case, born in August 1991 with palmaplantar keratotic lesions already at birth. The third case, an 18-year-old girl, is unrelated with the other two and comes from a different region of the country. Her family case history is negative. | |
