Abstract

Stucco keratosis is a dermal pathology that causes small, white-greyish, asymptomatic benign keratotic tumors. These are usually located in the extremities (especially in the lower) around the ankle. Its etiology is unknown and diagnosis is made through a proper clinical history and physical examination as morphology, location and age of presentation are key to establishing a diferential diagnosis with other conditions although if necessary biopsy is also avalaible. Stucco keratosis is a clinical entity with special podiatric interest given its frequent appearance in the lower extremities, hence the need to know and be able to perform a correct differential diagnosis. We report the case of a 45 year old man with no previous dermatological history presenting stucco keratosis in the lower extremity admitted to the outpatient clinic in the Dermatology Department of the Naval Hospital of Ferrol.
