Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
We report two brothers with anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (AED). AED is characterised by a triad of inability to sweat dental abnormalities and hypotrichosis. Although rare, it is important to diagnose this condition as it may lead to considerable morbidity and mortality if unrecognised. The typical features of this entity as described in the literature and as seen in our patients are emphasized as increased awareness can lead to early diagnosis and better prognosis. |
