Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Medical Genetics

Background:

  • Olmsted syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant disorder.
  • It is characterized by mutilating keratoderma, onychodystrophy, and digital amputations.

Observation:

  • Two cases of Olmsted syndrome are presented.
  • One case involved amputation of the 3rd, 4th, and 5th toes.
  • The second case demonstrated familial inheritance, with the affected individual's brother having the same condition.

Findings:

  • Both patients presented with thickened, hyperkeratotic lesions on palms and soles.
  • Significant clinical improvement was observed after a 3-month course of oral Neotegason (25 mg daily).

Implications:

  • This study highlights the clinical presentation of Olmsted syndrome.
  • It suggests Neotegason as a potentially effective treatment option for this rare condition.
  • Early diagnosis and intervention may improve patient outcomes.
