Dermatologica, 2009
Four members of a South African Black family who have palmoplantar keratoderma with amyotrophy are reported.

She had had the lesions for about 20 years and this seemed to be an isolated case in her family. This case appeared very unusual because there were no signs of acanthokeratolysis in the biopsies.
