Digitate hyperkeratoses are rare skin lesions. This report details a new variant in a 79-year-old woman, characterized by palmar pits and localized hyperkeratoses.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Digitate hyperkeratoses are uncommon skin findings.
  • The etiology of digitate hyperkeratoses remains largely unknown.
  • Limited case reports exist in the medical literature.

Observation:

  • A 79-year-old female patient presented with specific dermatological findings.
  • The patient exhibited palmar pits.
  • Digitate hyperkeratoses were observed, exclusively on the palms and soles.

Findings:

  • The case presents a novel variant of digitate hyperkeratosis.
  • The distribution pattern (palms and soles) is a key characteristic.
  • Co-occurrence with palmar pits is noted.

Implications:
