Abstract

Acquired digital fibrokeratoma (ADFK) is a solitary round, firm and hyperkeratotic projection seen most commonly on the digits, but it is occasionally found on the palm, dorsum of the hand, wrist, periungual area, and rarely on the sole. We report herein three cases of ADFK in an adult occuring on the sole. As being continuously exposed to the pressure, ADFKs are transformed and may easily be mistaken for more common plantar lesions including plantar warts and corns.
