Subscribe/Renew Journal
Palmar lesions may occur alone or along with involvement of soles and other areas. The most common conditions of palmar lesions are Psoriasis, Eczema, Dermatophytosis, Verruca vulgaris, Syphilis and Seasonal exfoliation. Other conditions over the palms include Druginduced, Callosities, Keratoderma and Heloma. Skin biopsies were obtained from the enrolled patients. We examined H&E-stained sections of the skinbiopsies of palmar lesions to observe the histopathologicalstudy where it was seen that in the active lesions, Parakeratosis was more uniform, Munromicroabscesses were larger and more numerous which concludes that psoriasis is the commonest palmar lesion. We conclude that the commonest palmar lesion is Psoriasis over the palms and Dermatopathology has a verysignificant role in concluding the diagnosis and Clinicopathological correlation is always the best to aid in the finaldiagnosis which helps in the proper and further managementof the patient.
Objectives: The aim of the study is to conclude the observational study of clinical and histopathological findings in 100 patients with palmar lesions attending dermatology department at Sree Balaji Medical College and Hospital.
Place of Study: Skin OPD, Sree Balaji medical college and hospital, Chennai.
