BACKGROUND: We describe a patient with acantholytic dermatosis of the crural folds (ADCF) that was misdiagnosed and treated as condyloma acuminata for 13 years. After many skin biopsies consistently showed epidermal acantholysis and negative human papillomavirus serotyping excluded condyloma acuminata, a diagnosis of ADCF was considered most likely. OBJECTIVE AND CONCLUSION: Acitretin effectively suppressed the symptomatic hyperkeratosis. Subsequent genetic testing revealed a deletion in the ATP2C1 gene that led us to conclude that this case of ADCF is probably a variant of familial benign chronic pemphigus (Hailey-Hailey disease).
