Article Synopsis
- Pseudoainhum is a rare condition where constriction bands can lead to painful digital strangulation and auto-amputation, commonly associated with palmoplantar keratodermas.
- The text presents the first documented case of pseudoainhum occurring in a 25-year-old woman with classic epidermolytic ichthyosis, who had a painful band on her fifth toe.
