Abstract

The oral lesions in patients with tylosis (palmoplantar keratoderma) associated with oesophageal cancer, are evaluated, based on their clinical presentation, histological features and long term follow-up. The terminology of these lesions is discussed, together with a proposed reclassification of some forms of palmoplantar keratoderma.
