Abstract

Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratoderma (NPPK) is an autosomal recessive form of diffuse palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) characterized by thickening and redness of palms and/or soles. In this report, we describe a female patient of Korean descent who had clinical remission of her adult-onset NPPK. To our knowledge, she is the first reported heterozygous SERBINB7 mutation carrier to present with classic NPPK who achieved spontaneous clinical remission.
