Abstract
Schopf–Schulz–Passarge syndrome (SSPS) is a rare type of ectodermal dysplasia characterized by palmoplantar keratoderma, hypodontia, hypotrichosis, nail dystrophy and multiple periocular and eyelid apocrine hidrocystomas. A 23-year-old female presented with eyelid hidrocystomas, palmoplantar keratoderma, nail dystrophy and thin scalp hair. Skin biopsy was consistent with apocrine hidrocystoma. The patient was diagnosed with SSPS.
