2 patients with typical clinical and histological pictures of hyperkeratosis lenticularis perstans were described. Both patients showed abnormalities of the mucosal surface. The ultrastructural findings, both in the cutaneous and in the mucosal lesions, provide strong evidence that the mucosal abnormalities are a real component of hyperkeratosis lenticularis perstans.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
