ABSTRACT
We report herein a case of pityriasis rubra pilaris in a 39-year-old male, who had erythematous scaly patches on the face, trunk and extremities for one year. The skin lesion showed well defined plaques on the elbow and knee joint areas, and exfoliative hyperkeratotic sheets with fissures on the palms and soles. He had no family and past history of such skin lesion. He was treated with etretinate lmg/kg/day for 1 week initially, and then tapered off 0.5mg/kg/day for 5 weeks with marked improvement. There was no exacerbation and recurrence of the skin lesion for about 1 year.
