ABSTRACT
Spiny keratoderma is a rare disorder and consists of multiple tiny keratotic plugs on the fingers and palms, which resemble the spines on a music box. Histopathologically, the lesions show compact columns of parakeratosis, with no granular layer beneath the column and no remarkable changes in the underlying epidermis and dermis. However, it is important to recognize that the disease is associated with internal malignancies. We report a case of spiny keratoderma in a 3-year-old girl, who had no associated underlying disorder.
