Article Synopsis
- Multiple minute digitate hyperkeratoses (MMDH) is a rare skin condition characterized by small, finger-like keratin growths, often found on the trunk and limbs.
- The condition can be inherited or acquired and is identified through specific histopathological and distribution characteristics.
- The text describes a particular case of MMDH and compares it to other similar skin conditions to highlight differences and diagnostic criteria.

Dermatology Department, Royal Brisbane Hospital, Herston, Queensland, Australia.
Article Synopsis
- An 87-year-old woman with dementia presented with multiple finger-like skin growths (digitate hyperkeratoses) on her face, limbs, and chest.
- She had a history of paraproteinaemia, and her tests showed an abnormal protein (immunoglobulin G-kappa) and anemia.
- A skin biopsy revealed thickened skin (orthokeratosis) with signs of immunoglobulin deposition, indicating a possible connection to systemic disorders, such as malignancies.

Department of Dermatology, CHRU Montpellier, Montpellier, France.
Article Synopsis
- Phrynoderma is a rare skin condition linked to a lack of vitamins A or C and essential fatty acids, leading to bumps on the skin, particularly in children.
- A case study reports a 6-year-old boy who developed phrynoderma due to severe deficiencies in both vitamins, stemming from chronic giardiasis, an intestinal infection caused by the Giardia parasite.
- Treatment with oral vitamins A and C, along with a medication called albendazole, was effective, marking this case as the first known instance of phrynoderma caused by a chronic parasitic infection rather than typical digestive issues.

Department of Dermatology, Hospital del Mar, IMAS, Barcelona, Spain.
Article Synopsis
- The text discusses the occurrence of multiple minute digitate hyperkeratoses (MMDH) following radiation therapy, which were previously documented as confined to the irradiated area and involved specific skin changes.
- It highlights the case of a 78-year-old woman who developed tiny keratotic papules on her chest wall after receiving cobalt irradiation for breast cancer.
- The conclusion suggests that postirradiation MMDH is a unique disorder that warrants classification as part of porokeratosis, distinguishing it from other forms of MMDH.

Article Synopsis
- A familial case of multiple minute digitate hyperkeratoses was observed, presenting as hundreds of small, spiked bumps on the skin, specifically on the trunk and limbs.
- Microscopic examination revealed specific features like digitiform orthohyperkeratosis but no atypical cells or dermal inflammation.
- The condition can be classified into three types: familial, sporadic, and postinflammatory, with the postinflammatory type showing distinct characteristics that suggest it might be a different entity from the familial and sporadic forms.

Article Synopsis
- - Multiple minute digitate hyperkeratoses (MMDH) is a rare skin disorder related to keratinization with an unclear cause and has various names in literature.
- - The study involved two patients and concluded that MMDH can be classified separately from other keratinization disorders.
- - There are two types of MMDH: early onset, which may be hereditary, and late onset, which can occur alongside other diseases, possibly as part of a paraneoplastic syndrome.

Department of Dermatology, Faculty of Medicine, Kyoto University, Japan.
Article Synopsis
- A new case of multiple minute digitate hyperkeratoses has been reported following radiation therapy for breast cancer.
- This case is notable as it's the first documented instance of this condition in an Asian country and the third overall after radiation treatment.
- The findings suggest that multiple minute digitate hyperkeratoses is a unique condition, as the characteristics, radiation trigger, and occurrence in diverse racial groups indicate it is distinct from other skin disorders.
Article Synopsis
- A 41-year-old woman has been experiencing multiple filiform hyperkeratoses on her trunk for 3 years, with a family history of similar skin issues in her uncle.
- Another patient is noted to have these hyperkeratoses solely on the palms and soles.
- This rare skin condition is called multiple minute digitate hyperkeratoses and is largely hereditary; a proposed German name for it is "multiple filiforme Hyperkeratosen."
