Abstract

Familial palmoplantar keratosis has not been associated with cardiac abnormalities, however, when this ectodermal dysplasia included hair shaft dystrophy a close association with cardiomyopathy was noted. We report here three family with six members in whom palmoplantar keratoderma with woolly hair and cardiac lesions was observed.
