ectodermal dysplasia/청각 장애

BACKGROUND The Marshall-Stickler phenotype is an autosomal dominant trait comprising ocular abnormalities, sensorineural hearing loss, craniofacial anomalies, and anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. METHODS A 5-year-old boy from non-consanguineous family in Austria was born with features of

Genetic background and characteristic symptoms of three children with rare genetic syndromes: Ectrodactyly Ectodermal dysplasia Clefting (EEC), Branchio-Oculo-Facial (BOF) and focal dermal hypoplasia (Goltz syndrome) were outlined. All patients presented common otorhinolaryngological features of

Two brothers with very similar phenotypes involving trichiasis (misdirected lashes), entropion with corneal abrasions, strabismus, progressive thinning of the scalp hair, sensorineural hearing impairment, mild learning difficulties, and inguinal hernias are described. They have similar, distinctive

Cerebellar ataxia has been described as being associated with hypogonadism for almost 100 years. In the majority of cases, hypogonadism is hypogonadotropic. The association of cerebellar ataxia with hypergonadotropic hypogonadism is a rare genetic disorder with a recessive mode of inheritance.

BACKGROUND Genitopatellar syndrome is characterized by absent/hypoplastic patellae, genital and renal abnormalities, dysmorphic facial features, and mental retardation. Cardiac anomalies, ectodermal dysplasia, and radio-ulnar synostosis have been suggested as additional features. CONCLUSIONS We

Otodental dysplasia is an ectodermal dysplasia characterized by abnormal crown morphology of the teeth and sensorineural hearing loss. It was documented in six generations of a kindred of Italian extraction. Thirty-three of the 119 examined family members were affected. Twenty-six persons had

In this communication, we describe the otologic and audiometric findings of a rare congenital syndrome associated with profound hearing loss. We offer a hypothesis of the possible inner ear pathologic condition. The major anomalies of this syndrome represent features of an ectodermal dysplasia

The ectodermal dysplasias (EDs) are a large and complex group of diseases. More than 170 different clinical conditions have been recognized and defined as ectodermal dysplasias. Commonly involved ectodermal-derived structures are hair, teeth, nails, and sweat glands. In some conditions, it may be

We report a 13-year-old boy with ectodermal dysplasia, ectrodactyly, and syndactyly, hypospadias, photophobia, conductive hearing loss, and perioral papillomatosis. His father had ectrodactyly and hypotrichosis. The clinical picture suggested ectrodactyly-ectodermal dysplasia-clefting (EEC)

The aim of this prospective study was to improve the quality of life of and reduce morbidity for patients with ectodermal dysplasia by assessing their actual and potential ENT pathologies, and offering methods of prevention and treatment. The study was conducted between 2006 and 2008 and included 23

OBJECTIVE To present the otolaryngologic manifestations and management of 12 patients with the rare presentation of ectodermal dysplasia. METHODS A retrospective chart review combined with a patient evaluation by the specialties of genetics, dermatology, dentistry, and otolaryngology. METHODS A

The ectodermal dysplasias (EDs) are a large and complex group of inherited disorders. In various combinations, they all share anomalies in ectodermal derived structures: hair, teeth, nails and sweat gland function. Clinical overlap is present among EDs. Few causative genes have been identified, to

We present a case of recurrent cicatricial stenosis of the external ear canals caused by ectodermal dysplasia, specifically Rapp-Hodgkin syndrome, in a 45-year-old woman. No form of medical or surgical management has produced durable patency of the patient's ear canals, and her hearing loss is being
