Angiokeratoma is a dark violaceous keratotic papule which can be solitary or multiple. Generalised systemic angiokeratoma constitute angiokeratoma corporis diffusum, a rare X-linked recessive inborn error of glycosphingolipid metabolism due to deficiency of alpha galactosidase A. Patients with this disease have premature death due to the vascular complications. A case of possible Fabry's disease is presented.
