Keratoderma climactericum, also known as climacteric keratoderma, Haxthausen's disease, or acquired plantar keratoderma, is a skin condition characterized by hyperkeratosis of the palms and soles beginning at about the time of menopause.[3]: 213 [4]
Keratoderma climactericum is either inherited through an abnormal gene, or it is acquired through a change in the health or environment of the individual.[5]
