Abstract EN

Subcorneal pustule dermatitis (SPD) is a rare, benign, relapsing pustule eruption of unknown etiology.

It usually develops in elderly women.

Herein we describe a 23-yearold Sudanese male diagnosed with SPD, based on clinical and histological findings.

The presentation is unusual ; pustules involving the whole body sparing palms, soles, axillae and groin.

The patient recovered completely after 8 weeks treatment of 100mg / day oral dapsone.
