A Case of Darier Disease with Typical Nail Changes
Abstract
- Darier disease is a rare genodermatosis clinically characterized by multiple hyperkeratotic papules and plaques predominantly on seborrheic areas. It has characteristic histopathological features; corps-ronds, grains, suprabasal clefts or lacunae, villi projections etc. We present a case of Darier disease in a 36-year-old woman. She had suffered from skin lesions which bore a great resemblance to those of verruca plana or eruptive syringoma. We could confirm the diagnosis as Darier disease because she had the characteristic nail changes.
