Abstract

Seven cases of Israeli Moslem men with hyperkeratotic nodular callosities of the legs and forehead are reported. These patients were randomly encountered over a two-year period in our dermatology clinic. The nodules were attributed to repeated trauma to the legs and forehead sustained during Moslem prayer. This article familiarizes the clinician with the morphologic characteristics of these lesions, which may occur in some Moslem men.

摘要
