The erythrokeratodermias are a clinically variable and genetically heterogeneous group of inherited disorders characterized by widespread erythematous plaques, stationary or migratory, associated with nonmigratory hyperkeratoses. The condition is usually present at birth or occurs during the first year but may begin later in childhood or even in early adulthood. Lesions preferentially affect the face, buttocks, and extensor surfaces of the limbs. Palmoplantar keratoderma occurs in about half the cases, but hair, nails, and teeth are not affected. [From OMIM]
