Introduction: Ectodermal dysplasia is a rare genetic disorder that affects structures derived from ectoderm such as teeth, hair, nails, and sweat glands. Oligodontia common finding the chewing, smiling self- esteem of these pediatric patients. Case Report: We present case report 7-years-old patient who consulted with his mother, showing same condition. The intervention consisted removable prost...

INTRODUCTION Common features of autoimmune polyendocrinopathy-candidiasis-ectodermal dysplasia include candidiasis, hypoparathyroidism and hypoadrenalism. The initial manifestation of autoimmune polyendocrinopathy-candidiasis-ectodermal dysplasia may be autoimmune hepatitis, keratoconjunctivitis, frequent fever with or without a rash, chronic diarrhea, or different combinations of these with or...

Ectrodactyly, ectodermal dysplasia, and cleft lip/palate (EEC) is a rare syndrome having ectrodactyly, ectodermal dysplasia, and cleft lip/palate. So far, very few cases have been reported in literature. However, we report a case of incomplete EEC syndrome having ectrodactyly and cleft lip and palate with absence of signs of ectodermal dysplasia with no other systemic anomalies. Other feature n...

ECTODERMAL DYSPLASIA IS A RARE DISORDER WITH DEFECTS IN TWO OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING STRUCTURES: the teeth and the skin and its appendages including hair, nails, eccrine, and sebaceous glands. Anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia is the most common type of disease. This rare disorder, also known as Christ-Siemens-Touraine syndrome, manifests as a triad of hypotrichosis, asteatosis, and anhidrosis. I...

Ectodermal dysplasia is an extremely rare genetic disorder characterized by faulty development of ectodermal structures. The tissues in which the primary defects occur are the skin, hair, nails, exocrine glands, and teeth. It usually affects the males and females are the carriers. The clinical features include sparse hair, abnormal or missing teeth, and inability to sweat due to lack of sweat g...

Ectodermal dysplasia exhibits a classic triad of hypohidrosis, hypotrichosis, and hypodontia. Self- mutilation could be due to organic or functional causes. The occurrence of selfmutilation with functional cause represents a diagnostic challenge to practitioners. In most of the instances dentists are the first to recognize patient with ectodermal dysplasia as they report primarily with a compla...

In this case report we will describe a rare association between anhyrotic ectodermal dysplasia (AED) and immunodeficiency and autoimmunity [in our case: Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP) and Crohn disease]. AED is a rare congenital disorder characterized by sparse hair, abnormal teeth and anhidrosis due to lack of eccrine glands. The survey of 87 cases with (AED) revealed only one Irrit...

The ectodermal dysplasias are a heterogeneous group of disorders with primary defect in hair, teeth, nail and sweat gland function. Numerous types have been described and several classifications exist. Here, we present a patient with ectodermal dysplasia with alopecia, dysplastic nails, hypohidrosis, sensorineural deafness, palmoplantar keratoderma, abnormal teeth and dry skin. To our knowledge...

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...

Ectodermal dysplasia are rare genetic diseases characterized by the absence or dysplasia of some tissues of ectodermal origin. We present a case of a young boy seen at the age of seven and a half years for late eruption of teeth, morphologic abnormalities of the teeth and a feeling of exaggerated heat. The diagnosis of anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia was discussed. The absence of sweat glands o...
