hyperkeratinization |
1. Hypertrophy of the corneous layer of the skin. 2a. Any of various conditions marked by hyperkeratosis. 2b. A disease of cattle marked by thickening and wringling of the hide and formation of papillary outgrowths on the buccal mucous membranes, often accompanied by watery discharge from eyes and nose, diarrhoea, loss of condition and abortion of pregnant animals and now believed to result from ingestion of the chlorinated naphthalene of various lubricating oils. (18 Nov 1997) |

hyperkeratosis congenita |
most common form of ichthyosis characterised by prominent scaling especially on the exterior surfaces of the extremities. It is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. (12 Dec 1998) |
hyperkeratosis eccentrica |
A rare, chronic, progressive autosomal dominant disorder seen most often in males and usually appearing in early childhood. It is characterised by the formation of slightly atrophic patches surrounded by an elevated, keratotic border. (12 Dec 1998) |
