متن کاملDiscriminative Features in Three Autosomal Recessive Cutis Laxa Syndromes: Cutis Laxa IIA, Cutis Laxa IIB, and Geroderma Osteoplastica
Cutis laxa is a heterogeneous condition characterized by redundant, sagging, inelastic, and wrinkled skin. The inherited forms of this disease are rare and can have autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or X-linked inheritance. Three of the autosomal recessive cutis laxa syndromes, namely cutis laxa IIA (ARCL2A), cutis laxa IIB (ARCL2B), and geroderma osteodysplastica (GO), have very similar...
متن کاملCutis laxa: case report.
Cutis laxa is a rare inherited or acquired disorder of elastic tissue characterized by inelastic and loose skin. Congenital cutis laxa may present with internal organ involvement, determining a worse prognosis. The authors present the case of a female patient with clinical manifestations suggestive of the hereditary form of the disease, with consanguineous parents (second-degree cousins) and a ...
