A Clinico-Epidemiological Study of Hyperkeratotic Palmoplantar Lesions and Its Correlation With Dermoscopy and Histopathology in a Tertiary Care Center.

Introduction Hyperkeratotic lesions on the palms and soles are one of the most frequent clinical presentations encountered in dermatological practice, with a myriad of underlying etiologies that closely resemble one another and are clinically indistinguishable. Histopathological examination is the tool used by dermatologists to arrive at a final diagnosis, but it is invasive and not feasible under all circumstances. Dermoscopy is a new age, increasingly popular, noninvasive diagnostic technique of great value that is used to diagnose underlying etiology by acting as a bridge between clinical and histopathological pictures.
