General information

Focal Non-Epidermolytic Palmoplantar Keratoderma (FNEPPK1) is a skin disorder found in the Dogue de Bordeaux, causing severe and painful thickening and cracking of the paw pads. It is caused by a recessive mutation to the gene KRT16.

Clinical features

Onset of FNEPPK can occur anywhere between 10 weeks and 1 year of age. The main symptom is a painful thickening of the paw pads, as well as the formation of cracks and/or lumpy keratinous growths. The cracks pose a risk of infection, which can in turn cause lameness.
