We describe a patient with typical keratotic lesions of punctate palmoplantar keratoderma on the hands and feet and unique pigmentary lesions on the dorsa of the feet and ankles. A combination of low‐dose oral etretinate (10 mg/day) and calcipotriol ointment 0.005% resulted in a complete regression, whereas pigmentary lesions on the dorsa of the feet and ankles did not change during the treatment.
