THE DRUG USED IN THIS STUDY WAS DONATED BY ALLERGAN. ABSTRACTBackground. Sulcate plantare keratolysis or pitted keratolysis (plantar keratolysis sulcatum) is a disease that is commonly found in tropical countries. Patients have also reported plantar hyperhidrosis. Objective. Two patients with pitted keratolysis resistant to topical and systemic treatments are described. Methods. Both patients were injected with botulinum toxin distributed evenly through the plantar extension. Results. The response to the treatment was excellent despite using a low dose of botulinum toxin with the plantar keratolysis healing completely. Conclusion. Hyperhidrosis may be considered the major etiologic factor for pitted keratolysis that does not respond to treatment. |
