A case of delayed onset (17 years) progressive symmetric erythrokeratodermia is presented. The treatment with etretinate initially improved the clinical picture, but it had to be discontinued because of personality changes, particularly depressive crisis. In addition, clinical manifestations, histology, kinetics and ultrastructural changes in this condition are also commented on.
