Rubinstein--Taybi syndrome and ulerythema ophryogenes in a 9-year-old boy.
Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome is characterized by the presence of a peculiar facies, mental retardation, and broad thumbs and great toes. Several associated cutaneous abnormalities have been reported with this syndrome. Ulerythema ophryogenes is a form of follicular keratosis associated occasionally with other ectodermal defects and congenital anomalies. We describe a 9-year-old child with Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome and ulerythema ophryogenes. This association has not been described previously to our knowledge.
