Symmetrical progressive erythrokeratoderma is a rare skin condition causing red, thickened plaques on limbs. This case highlights the diagnostic confirmation through histopathology in an 18-year-old male patient.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Clinical Medicine
  • Histopathology

Background:

  • Erythrokeratoderma is a group of rare genodermatoses characterized by congenital or early-onset erythrokeratotic lesions.
  • Symmetrical progressive erythrokeratoderma presents with persistent, erythematous, hyperkeratotic plaques, primarily affecting the extremities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a case report of an 18-year-old male with symmetrical progressive erythrokeratoderma.
  • To emphasize the role of histopathology in confirming the clinical diagnosis of this rare condition.

Main Methods:

  • Clinical examination of an 18-year-old male patient presenting with skin lesions.
  • Histopathological analysis of skin biopsy specimens to evaluate tissue morphology.
  • Correlation of clinical findings with histopathological results for diagnosis.

Main Results:

  • The patient exhibited erythematous hyperkeratotic plaques symmetrically distributed on the extremities.
  • Histopathological examination confirmed the clinical diagnosis of symmetrical progressive erythrokeratoderma.
  • The condition had a duration of 12 years in the presented case.

Conclusions:

  • Symmetrical progressive erythrokeratoderma is a distinct clinical entity that can be diagnosed definitively through histopathology.
  • Early and accurate diagnosis is crucial for appropriate patient management and understanding the prognosis of erythrokeratoderma variants.
