The present study was conducted on 12 unrelated Chinese patients who were clinically predicted to suffer from NPPK. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

We report the case of a 61-year-old woman who presented with a long history of multiple symptomatic hyperkeratotic papules on the palms and soles. [mdedge.com]

Gene Identification Often, the clinical presentation is not as straight forward as the texts present. Clinical evaluation can present with diffuse as well as punctuate keratodermas and associated nail dystrophy. [faoj.org]

  Abstract Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome, or keratosis palmoplantaris with periodontopathia (PLS, MIM 245000), is an autosomal recessive disorder that is mainly ascertained by dentists because of the severe periodontitis that afflicts patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  AB - Papillon-Lefevre syndrome, or keratosis palmoplantaris with periodontopathia (PLS, MIM 245000), is an autosomal recessive disorder that is mainly ascertained by dentists because of the severe periodontitis that afflicts patients(1,2). [pure.qub.ac.uk]

  It is important for dentists to be aware that clues to diagnosis can be gained from examination of the hands and feet, in addition to an oral examination, particularly in recognizing oral genetic disorders. [dental-update.co.uk]

  Dentists play an important role in diagnosis considering it is a disease with severe oral manifestations; When making diagnosis, the clinical examination should be detailed, ordered and complete. [clinicadavilla.com.br]

• Cardiac Signs and Symptoms

  All patients with cardiac signs and symptoms showed echocardiographic enlargement of the right ventricle and a right ventricular band; in three the left ventricle was also affected. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Cardiomegaly

  Cardiomegaly on chest x ray and electrocardiographic abnormalities were common findings. Three cases had episodes of ventricular tachycardia and a fourth patient died suddenly. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Nail Hypertrophy

  JLS-1 is characterized by nail hypertrophy, nail dystrophy, PPK, follicular keratosis and oral leukokeratosis and is the most common form of PC (56.2%). [4] JLS-2 usually lacks oral leukokeratosis and is commonly associated with epidermolytic bullae of [faoj.org]

A 48-year-old woman developed palmoplantar hyperkeratosis during treatment with imatinib (400mg/day) for treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment Treatment regimes are based on surgical techniques, medications and ancillary treatments designed to decrease painful keratosis. Surgical debridement or paring of keratosis is effective, but only temporary. [faoj.org]

The final chapters discuss treatment methods including drugs and lasers. [books.google.de]

Treatment may include keratolytics, oral retinoids, and surgical debridement. [intechopen.com]
