A Case of Kyrle's Disease
Abstract
- We report a case of Kyrles disease occuring in a 19-year-old man with chronic renal failure. The patient had multiple hyperkeratotic papules with central plug on the upper extremities, lower extremities and buttocks. Histopathological findings showed epidermal invagination filled with parakeratotic column and basophilic debris. Many dyskeratotic and vacuolated cells were present below the keratotic plug, and penetration of the parakeratotic column into the dermis was seen.
