Mal de Meleda (MDM) is a rare autosomal recessive type of palmoplantar keratoderma that is characterized by transgradient keratoderma with scleroatrophy, pseudoainhum around the fingers, and perioral erythema. Its features may also include lichenoid lesions, brachydactyly, and nail dystrophy. The disease has high morbidity and significantly impairs quality of life. Here, we describe two sisters with typical clinical presentations of MDM and a history of consanguinity between the parents.
