Pseudoherpetic keratitis. Corneal changes in circumscribed palmo-plantar keratoderma.

چکیده
The association of herpetoid corneal changes with circumscribed palmo-plantar keratoderma was first described by Richner (I938). Hanhart (1947) suggested that this represented a recessively inherited ectodermal syndrome, and the condition is sometimes called the Richner-Hanhart syndrome. Subsequent reports have been relatively few: Cremona (I 957); Kuske (I959); Franceschetti and Thier (I96I); Costa (I962); Grayson (I965). In this case the nature of the "herpetic" corneal lesions was not appreciated until after the appearance of typical skin lesions.
