Papillon-Lefevre syndrome
(
PLS
) is an autosomally recessive palmoplantar keratoderma accompanied by psoriasiform plaques on the extensor surfaces of extremities and leading to premature loss of deciduous and permanent teeth by progressive periodontitis. Patients with
PLS
may exhibit mental retardation, intracranial ectopic calcifications, nail dystrophies and a tendency to various infectious disorders, in addition to skin and oral findings. Herein, we report a 26-year-old man with
PLS
, who had experienced xanthogranulomatous
pyelonephritis
and hepatitis during childhood and adolescence. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of
PLS
associated with xanthogranulomatous inflammation.
