Aquagenic keratoderma (AK) is a rare acquired skin condition characterized by recurrent and transient white papules and plaques associated with a burning sensation, pain, pruritus and/or hyperhidrosis on the palms and more rarely, soles triggered by sweat or contact with water. Often AK cause significant discomfort, thus requiring an appropriate therapy. Topical aluminum-based products are the most commonly used medications, but they are not always effective. We report a case of AK unresponsive to topical 20% of aluminum chloride successfully treated with tap water iontophoresis.
水源性角化病（AK）是一种罕见的后天性皮肤病，其特征为反复出现短暂的白色丘疹和斑块，伴有烧灼感、疼痛、瘙痒和/或多汗症，主要发生于手掌，较少见于足底，由出汗或接触水引发。AK常引起明显不适，因此需要适当治疗。局部使用铝基产品是最常用的药物，但并不总是有效。我们报告一例对局部使用20%氯化铝无反应的AK患者，经自来水离子电渗疗法成功治疗。
