Article Synopsis
- Punctate palmoplantar keratoderma type 1 (PPPK1) is a rare genetic condition causing hard, raised patches on the palms and soles, caused by mutations in the AAGAB gene.
- * In a study, four Japanese patients from two families were found to share a new AAGAB mutation that resulted in similar mild symptoms only on their soles.
- * This discovery suggests that there may be a link between the specific mutation (c.844G>A) and the mild phenotype, indicating the need for proper diagnosis to avoid confusion with other skin conditions.

A 40-year-old woman with a family history of gastric, pulmonary, and endometrial cancers (parents and grandparents) was referred to our institution with a 3-year history of progressive pruritus with palmar and plantar papules. On physical examination, there were keratotic yellowish pinpoint papules on the hands (Figure 1) and yellowish keratotic plaques and papules on the plantar pressure points (Figure 2). The diagnosis of punctate palmoplantar keratoderma was confirmed histopathologically (Figure 3), and treatment was initiated with 30% urea cream, which proved helpful.
