title: Waxy keratoses of childhood.
abstract: Three cases of waxy keratoses of childhood occurring in two families are described. The disorder seen in these three cases appears to be clinically and histopathologically distinct from previously described familial disorders of keratinization, which also feature multiple discrete papules.
