Abstract:We report a case of transient neonatal cutis laxa and hypertrichosis lanuginosa as an initial presentation in Sotos syndrome. Little is known about skin involvement in Sotos syndrome. Our observation highlights that Sotos syndrome is a rare cause of cutis laxa and suggests that it is a useful neonatal skin clue to the diagnosis of overgrowth syndromes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
