SUMMARY An Indian woman presented with crateriform and pearly papules along the lines of transgredience of the hands and feet. Her father and an older sister are similarly affected. Histology showed hyperkeratosis and elastorrhexis. The differential diagnosis of acrokeratoelastoidosis includes focal acral hyperkeratosis. The current classification of marginal papular acrokeratodermas is discussed.
