ABSTRACT

Porokeratosis is a rare group of skin disorders characterized by abnormal keratinization. Risk factors include genetic alterations, infections, and ultraviolet radiation exposure, among others. Several clinical variants have been described, including disseminated superficial actinic porokeratosis, disseminated superficial porokeratosis, porokeratosis of Mibelli, palmoplantar porokeratosis, linear porokeratosis, follicular porokeratosis, and porokeratoma. Diagnosis is established through clinicopathological correlation, supported by complementary tools like dermoscopy and reflectance confocal microscopy.
We report the case of a female patient with a solitary lesion on her palm, which had been present for five years. This case is notable for its unusual location, hypokeratotic morphology, and isolated clinical presentation, making it a diagnostic challenge rarely documented in dermatologic literature.
