EA90.42 Palmoplantar pustulosis

International Classification of Diseases for Mortality and Morbidity Statistics, 11th Revision, v2024-01

Palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) is a chronic inflammatory skin condition characterised by crops of sterile pustules on the palms and soles which erupt repeatedly over months or years. The affected areas tend to become red and scaly; cracks may form and these are often painful. It is strongly associated with smoking. It is associated with psoriasis elsewhere on the body in up to 24% of patients though appears to have a genetic profile distinct from psoriasis vulgaris. Interleukin-36 receptor gene polymorphisms are strongly associated with generalised pustular psoriasis and have been detected in a minority of patients with PPP.
