[Werner's syndrome. Report of a new case].
Werner syndrome or adult progeria is a very rare disease transmitted in a recessive autosomic way. It is characterized by a pathologic and premature aging in all organs and systems, which begins generally between 1st and 3rd decades of life. We discuss a new case with a very visible expression both clinical as well as analytical, highlighting the characteristic chromosomic study.
