Pigmentation defects-palmoplantar keratoderma-skin carcinoma syndrome

A rare genetic skin disease characterized by infantile onset of diffuse alopecia, abnormal skin pigmentation (hypo- and hyperpigmented macules of the trunk and face and areas of reticular hypo- and hyperpigmentation of the extremities), palmoplantar keratoderma, and nail dystrophy. Patients develop recurrent spinocellular carcinomas later in life. Brittle teeth resulting in early loss of dentition have also been described.
