Palmoplantar keratoderma (KPP) is a group of inherited or acquired conditions characterized by palmar and plantar hyperkeratosis. The analysis can be difficult, however, thanks to dermoscopy, which is a non-invasive means of exploration, certain signs are very orienting for the right diagnosis. The available data concerning the dermoscopic profile of palmoplanar pathologies are still limited in the literature. we have reviewed the dermoscopic signs of KPP which target the acquired inflammatory dermatoses frequently found in the routine consultation of the dermatologist. The aim is to realize a dermoscopic guide for the dermatologist in front of KPP and to facilitate the diagnostic orientation in front of this topography using the Dermoscope. We have illustrated with dermoscopic images taken from patients followed in consultation.The analyzed images were taken with minimal pressure to preserve vessel morphology, and immersion with a clear, thick, colorless gel to ensure better visualization.

Although unilateral or asymmetric involvement and concurrent infection of other sites (particularly the nails and feet) may be useful in aiding the diagnosis of TM, its distinction from similar inflammatory dermatoses is often difficult, resulting in diagnostic delays, errors and unnecessary therapies [26,27].…”

Nowadays, dermoscopy is a global worldwide diffuse diagnostic tool supporting clinicians in their daily hard task of correct orientation among dermatological diseases. Born to be an instrument for early diagnosis of skin cancer, the dermatoscope is now considered the dermatologist’s stethoscope, as it can be routinely used to support diagnosis in general dermatology, so spreading its utility in cutaneous inflammatory and infectious diseases, as adjuvant and not substitute to histology and potassium hydroxide examination. As concerns the latter, plenty of papers have been published since the first description of dermoscopic findings of scabies. The aim of this review is to give the clinician a practical approach to dermoscopic parameters of cutaneous infectious diseases with a focus on the latest updates in this topic.

“…Jakhar et al also reported that dotted vessels only in the skin furrows is another dermatoscopic finding in tinea manuum. They explained this vascular finding with the reactionary vasodilatation of vessels in response to inflammatory process induced by dermatophytes [5,51,52].…”

Dermatoscopy is a useful, non-invasive method in the diagnosis of various dermatological diseases. Dermatoscopy of non-pigmented skin lesions shows additional morphologic features, such as cutaneous vascular pattern, scale color and scale distribution pattern, and background color. Dermatoscopy can be useful tool in differential diagnosis in palmoplantar dermatoses. The most specific dermatoscopic features of hand eczema include yellowish-orange globules, yellowish scales and yellowish crusts. Light red background color, regular vascular distribution pattern, dotted vessels and white scale color have been reported in previous studies as dermatoscopic features of palmoplantar psoriasis. Dotted vessels can be seen in various dermatoses, such as psoriasis, eczema, lichen planus, porokeratosis and keratodermas. The distribution pattern and color of the scales are also important in the differential diagnosis of palmoplantar dermatoses. Previous studies have shown that scales are mainly localized in skin furrows in patients with tinea manum. Patchy distributed, homogeneous, structureless, orange areas were reported in palmar keratoderma due to pityriasis rubra pilaris. Amber scales, white-to-pinkish background; sparse whitish scales were reported in palmar keratoderma due to mycosis fungoides. Dermatoscopical findings of palmoplantar area can help in the differential diagnosis of various dermatoses.
