Autosomal recessive anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (Christ – Seimens – Touraine syndrome) in siblings

Abstract

Anhidrotic Ectodermal Dysplasia (Christ – Seimens – Touraine Syndrome)is a rare genodermatoses comprising triad of hypohidrosis (anhidrosis), hypotrichosis and anodontia. It is usually inherited as X-linked recessive. Autosomal dominant and recessive inheritance is very rare, here we report a case of autosomal recessive anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.
