title: Syndrome of cystic eyelids, palmo-plantar keratosis, hypodontia and hypotrichosis as a possible autosomal recessive trait.
abstract: Description is given of two sisters, offspring of a first cousin marriage, who exhibited the following identical lesions: 1) cysts of the borders of upper and lower lids; 2) hypodontia; 3) hypotrichosis; 4) palmo-plantar keratosis and 5) onychodystrophy. It is suggested that this combination represents a previously unrecognized autosomal recessive trait in man.
