Description

Peeling skin syndrome (PSS) is an autosomal recessive genodermatosis characterized by the shedding of the outer epidermis. In an acral form of the disorder (PSS2), the dorsa of the hands and feet are predominantly affected, and ultrastructural analysis shows separation at the junction between the granular cells and the stratum corneum in the outer epidermis (summary by Cassidy et al., 2005).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of peeling skin syndrome, see PSS1 (OMIM ).
