title: [Grotton's acrogeria with bone involvement].
abstract: A 13-year-old girl had a bird-like face, deficiency of the subcutaneous fatty tissue, dry, thin, transparent and wrinkled skin, especially on the hands and feet, prominent veins and telangiectasia and mottled hyper-pigmentation. X-ray studies revealed acro-osteolysis of the hands and feet. The clinical features corresponded well with Gottron-type acrogeria. The clinical symptoms of premature ageing syndromes, such as progeria, lipodystrophia totalis, Cockayne syndrome, metageria and acrogeria are summarized briefly and compared with the clinical picture observed in our patient.
