Dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria as an autosomal recessive disease in five members of one family

Abstract: Dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria (DUH) is an autosomal dominant cutaneous condition characterized by generalized well-demarcated hyperpigmented and hypopigmented macules. Here we are reporting five members of an Arabic family affected with this disease in two separate generations suggesting an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance.Four members of a Saudi Arabian family which consisted of three girls, four boys and both parents presented to the dermatology clinic with asymptomatic multiple, bilaterally … Show more

“…445 This contrasts with dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria (see above) in which lesions are almost always acral in location. 461 In the autosomal recessive variant, a new locus on 12q21-q23 appears to be involved. [456][457][458][459][460] The gene responsible maps to chromosome 6q24.2-q25.2.…”
