Porokeratotic eccrine and hair follicle nevus is a very rare non-hereditary disorder of keratinization with eccrine and hair follicle involvement with only 9 cases described in the literature. In 2009 the term porokeratotic anexial ostial nevus was proposed to comprehend porokeratotic eccrine and hair follicle nevus and a related and more common process without follicular involvement: porokerat...

Comedo-like lesions of the palm, present since birth, are studied electronmicroscopically and their eccrine nature demonstrated. We suggest their inclusion under the name porokeratotic eccrine-ostial and dermal duct nevus previously proposed by Abell and Read.

Porokeratotic Eccrine Ostial and Dermal Duct Nevus (PEODDN) is a rare disorder of keratinization that clinically resembles comedo nevus but occurs on the palms and soles and is characterized by cornoid lamella in the histopathology. We hereunder report a young male with mildly itchy papules on the lateral surface of the left foot who was diagnosed with PEODDN upon biopsy of the lesion. We brief...

Porokeratotic eccrine ostial and dermal duct nevus (PEODDN) is a rare eccrine hamartoma, with treatment generally being unsatisfactory. The unique features of PEODDN presented include bilateral and facial lesions, and extensive body involvement. Management with CO2 laser was successful, and follow-up will be necessary to monitor for recurrent lesions.

Porokeratotic eccrine ostial and dermal duct nevus, or porokeratotic eccrine nevus (PEN), is a hyperkeratotic epidermal nevus. Several cases of widespread involvement have been reported, including one in association with the keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness (KID) syndrome (OMIM #148210), a rare disorder caused by mutations in the GJB2 gene coding for the gap junction protein connexin26 (Cx26). The...

This 66-year-old Iranian gentle man had a one-year history of asymptomatic keratotic papules with a linear distribution on the skin of his right palm near the wrist. On histopathologic examination-cornoid lamella-like parakeratotic columns above eccrine ducts were observed. The acrosyringium was also dilated. The diagnosis was porokeratotic eccrine ostial and dermal duct nevus. The late-onset d...

Inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus is a rare variant of nevoid linear inflammatory dermatoses which appear most often in first six months of life and persists for many years or even whole life. Clinically it often shares many features with linear psoriasis, linear porokeratosis and other linear dermatoses which can usually be differentiated by an established set of clinical and histo...
