Deafness, palmoplantar hyperkeratosis, and knuckle pads with male-to-male transmission: Bart-Pumphrey syndrome

We report on a 22-year-old male patient and his father, both presenting with congenital sensorineural deafness, diffuse palmoplantar keratoderma and knuckle pads. These findings are similar to those previously described in the Bart-Pumphrey syndrome, a rare autosomal dominant disorder. Several conditions including keratoderma and deafness are briefly reviewed.
