Description : In a review of ectodermal dysplasia syndromes characterized by palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) and congenital alopecia, Castori et al. (2010) suggested that there are 2 main types of unclassified syndromes that combine these 2 features. A more severe recessive disorder (212360) shows progressive hyperkeratosis resulting in sclerosis, severe contractures and tapering of the digits, and pseudoainhum formation. The less severe autosomal dominant disorder, described here, does not have significant hand complications, although keratosis is present.;
