The inherited palmoplantar keratodermas (PPKs) are a clinically heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by thickening of the skin of the palms and the soles. These diseases also exhibit genetic heterogeneity and many autosomal dominant and recessive forms have been described. Mal de Meleda (Meleda disease, MD) is an autosomal recessive form of PPK first described on the Dalmatian island of Meleda. A gene for MD has recently been assigned to the most telomeric portion of chromosome 8q using two large Algerian families.
