title: GAPO syndrome in a child without dermal hyaline deposit.
abstract: A 5-year-old girl with GAPO syndrome from India lacked PAS-positive hyaline material in the skin biopsy from thigh and scalp. The role of this pathological change, earlier reported by Wajntal et al. [1990] in the pathogenesis of GAPO syndrome, needs to be reexamined.
