calcification;
Description : Cole disease is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by congenital or
early-onset punctate keratoderma associated with irregularly shaped hypopigmented
macules, which are typically found over the arms and legs but not the trunk or acral
regions. Skin biopsies of palmoplantar lesions show nonspecific changes including
hyperorthokeratosis, hypergranulosis, and acanthosis. Hypopigmented areas of skin,
however, reveal a reduction in melanin content in keratinocytes but not in melanocytes,
as well as hyperkeratosis and a normal number of melanocytes. Ultrastructurally, melanocytes
show a disproportionately large number of melanosomes in the cytoplasm and dendrites,
whereas keratinocytes show a paucity of these organelles, suggestive of impaired melanosome
transfer (summary by Eytan et al., 2013). Some patients also exhibit calcinosis cutis
or early-onset calcific tendinopathy (Eytan et al., 2013).;
