Autosomal dominant palmoplantar hyperkeratosis and sensorineural deafness in three generations.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A family is presented with autosomal dominant progressive palmoplantar hyperkeratosis, which is invariably associated with a slowly progressive, bilateral, high frequency, sensorineural hearing loss. The family show no other ectodermal abnormality. The differential diagnosis and possible mechanisms are discussed. This family appears to represent a unique variant in the hyperkeratosis-deafness association.

Sensorineural hearing loss, striate palmoplantar hyperkeratosis, and knuckle pads in a patient with a novel connexin 26 (GJB2) mutation.
M utations in connexin 26 (GJB2, Cx26) cause autosomal recessive and occasionally dominant non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). Cx26 mutations have also been identified in SNHL with dermatological features of autosomal dominant diffuse palmoplantar hyperkeratosis (DPPK). We describe a girl with bilateral sloping sensorineural hearing loss, striate palmoplantar hyperkeratosis (SPPK),...
متن کاملPalmoplantar hyperkeratosis with short stature, facial dysmorphism, and hypodontia--a new syndrome?: case report.
In this study, a possible new syndrome affecting 18 members of a family spanning 4 generations is described. The main features include palmoplantar hyperkeratosis, proportionate short stature, facial dysmorphism, clinodactyly, epilepsy, deafness, and hypodontia. This syndrome is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner with a high degree of penetrance but variable expressivity. This syndrome d...
متن کاملDeafness, palmoplantar hyperkeratosis, and knuckle pads with male-to-male transmission: Bart-Pumphrey syndrome
We report on a 22-year-old male patient and his father, both presenting with congenital sensorineural deafness, diffuse palmoplantar keratoderma and knuckle pads. These findings are similar to those previously described in the Bart-Pumphrey syndrome, a rare autosomal dominant disorder. Several conditions including keratoderma and deafness are briefly reviewed.
متن کاملHereditary Palmoplantar Keratoderma and Deafness Resulting from Genetic Mutation of Connexin 26
Gap junctions, which mediate rapid intercellular communication, consist of connexins, small transmembrane proteins that belong to a large family of proteins found throughout the species. Mutations in the GJB2 gene, encoding Connexin 26, can cause nonsyndromic autosomal recessive or dominant hearing loss with or without skin manifestations. A 3-yr-old Korean female and her mother presented to ou...
متن کاملA case of focal acral hyperkeratosis.
Focal acral hyperkeratosis (FAH) is a rare genodermatosis with an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance; however, it may also be sporadic. FAH is characterized by late-onset crateriform keratotic papules, some coalescing into plaques, along the borders of the hands and feet. We herein report a case of FAH in a 47-year-old male with a family history of similar lesions in three generations. T...
