Description
Summary:Differential diagnosis includes striate keratoderma, callosities, clavi, plantar warts, linear punctate porokeratosis, porokeratotic eccrine ostial and dermal duct nevus and arsenical keratosis. Striate keratoderma presents soon after birth with linear bands, areate or confluent areas of keratoderma raised well above the skin surface without the punctate lesions and occurs due to genetic mutation in one of the three genes encoding for desmoglein 1, desmoplakin or V1 domain of keratin 1. Plantar warts are sharply defined rough keratotic papules or plaques which on paring show small bleeding points which was not seen in our patient.
