aDeri ve Zührevi Hastalıklar Kliniği, Haydarpaşa Numune Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi, İSTANBUL Fox-Fordyce disease is a papular dermatose, which occurs in apocrine glands as a result of acute sweat retention and secondary inflammation. Its etiology is still unknown. Most of the patients are postpubertal or premenauposal women. There is no effective therapy though various treatments may be given for relieving symptoms. Here we report a case of Fox-Fordyce disease, which started before puberty and responded to topical corticosteroid therapy.Keywords: Fox-Fordyce disease, prepubertal, corticosteroid, administration, topicalTurkiye Klinikleri J Med Sci 2006, 26:338-341
