Keratosis palmoplantaris striata type I (SPPK-I) is a rare autosomal-dominant type of hereditary epidermolytic palmoplantar keratoderma, which can be caused by mutations in desmoglein-1 (DSG-1). Patients suffer from hyperkeratotic plaques and painful palmoplantar fissures. Unfortunately, treatment options including salicylic vaseline, topical corticosteroids, phototherapy, and retinoids are inefficient. Hereditary palmoplantar keratodermas (PPKs) represent a heterogeneous group of rare skin disorders with epidermal palmoplantar hyperkeratosis. Mutations in the desmoglein 1 gene (DSG1), a transmembrane glycoprotein, have been reported primarily in striate PPKs. We report a patient with keratosis palmoplantaris striata type I (SPPK-I) with a specific pathogenic variant [c.349C>T, p.(Arg117*)] in DSG1. Despite increased understanding, effective treatment options for PPK, including SPPK-I, remain limited.
