Progressive symmetrical erythrokeratoderma - response to topical calcipotriol

[摘要] Progressive symmetrical erythrokeratoderma is characterized by well-demarcated, symmetrically distributed, erythtematous and hyperkeratotic plaques. Treatment options are topical retinoids, emollients, keratolytics and topical corticosteroids with limited or no success. Oral retinoids have been shown to be successful in some cases, but recurrence is to be expected on cessation of therapy. Topical calcipotriol is an established mode of treatment for psoriasis and also reported to be effective in many hyperkeratotic skin diseases.
