Abstract

Pitted keratolysis is a superficial bacterial infection of the skin. Corynebacteria infection of the skin is generally the cause although other bacteria have been isolated. Clinically there are many skin coloured, punched out depressions measuring 2 to 30 mm in diameter. The most common localization is the plantar skin where pressure bearing areas, are most involved. Palmar lesions are very rare. Here we report a patient with pitted keratolysis associated with palmar hyperhidrosis developing after using battery heated hand warmer. Dermatoscopic examination revealed numerous black circles in a parallel pattern on the ridges of the skin markings. To our knowledge, the dermatoscopic features of pitted keratolysis have not been described previously.

Özet

Pitted keratoliz derinin yüzeyel bakteriyel enfeksiyonudur. Derinin korinebakteriyel enfeksiyonu genellikle etken patojen olup, başka bakteriler de izole edilmiştir. Klinik olarak çok sayıda, 2-30 mm çapında çukurcuklar mevcuttur. En sık, daha fazla basınca maruz kalan ayak tabanı tutulur. Palmar lezyoniar çok nadirdir. Burada, pilli el ısıtıcısı kullanımı sonrası palmar pitted keratoliz gelişen bir olgu sunulmaktadır. Dermatoskopik incelemede deri çizgilerinin sırt kısımlarında, çok sayıda, paralel dağılım paterninde, siyah daireler gözlenmiştir. Bilgilerimiz dahilinde, bugüne kadar pitted keratolizisin dermatoskopik bulguları bildirilmemiştir.
