Case report highlights clinical, dermoscopic, and histopathological features of acrokeratosis verruciformis in a young female, indicating the need for awareness of this rare disorder.
Acrokeratosis verruciformis hopf (AVH) is a rare disorder of keratinisation with an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern and incomplete penetrance. It is characterised by the presence of multiple flat-topped skin-coloured keratotic lesions that are generally seen over the dorsum of hands and feet. Herein, we present a case of a young female with AVH, which was diagnosed by the characteristic clinical, dermoscopic, and histopathological features of the disease.
