Popis: Dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis (DPR) is an extremely rare autosomal dominant ectodermal dysplasia that occurs because of mutations in KRT14. It mainly affects the skin, nails, and hair, with a characteristic diagnostic triad of widespread reticulate hyperpigmentation that begins at birth or during early childhood, noncicatricial alopecia (usually mild), and onychodystrophy. Patients with this syndrome may also have adermatoglyphia, palmoplantar hyperkeratosis, hyperhidrosis or hypohidrosis, and acral dorsal nonscarring blisters.1, 2, 3, 4, 5 The first cases of DPR were reported and described in 1958 by Hauss and Oberste-Lehn.1, 6 To date
