Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, primary hypothyroidism, and agenesis of the corpus callosum.

Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, primary hypothyroidism, and agenesis of the corpus callosum.

In this report we present the unique combination of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, primary hypothyroidism, and agenesis of the corpus callosum in a two year old, severely mentally retarded boy.

Ectodermal dysplasia, primary hypothyroidism, and agenesis of the corpus callosum: variable expression of a single syndrome?

We present two unrelated children, a male and a female, with signs of ectodermal dysplasia, mental retardation, agenesis/ dysgenesis of the corpus callosum, and primary hypothyroidism. Reports of ectodermal dysplasia with CNS malformations or hypothyroidism or both are rare. We suggest that the condition we describe is a distinct entity within the large group of ectodermal dysplasia syndromes a...

Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.

X linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia was studied in the dentition of both affected males and carrier females. Hypodontia was more severe in males than females and there were differences in the pattern of tooth absence between the sexes. Abnormal crown form, with the maximum diameter of the teeth being apically displaced, was noted particulady in the anterior teeth. Taurodontism was common...

Hypohidrotic Ectodermal Dysplasia: Prosthetic and Endodontic Management

Individuals affected by ectodermal dysplasia syndromes have abnormalities of the glands, tooth buds, hair follicles, and nail development. Oral finding in ectodermal dysplasia patient are significant and can include multiple abnormalities of the dentition such as anodontia, hy-podontia or malformed and widely spaced peg like teeth, loss of occlusal vertical dimension, protuberant lips and lack ...
