[Gronblad-Strandberg syndrome. Report of four cases in one family].
The Grönblad-Strandberg syndrome is a rare congenital hereditary dysplasic disorder of the connective tissue, characterized by a progressive abnormal mineralization and dystrophic calcification of elastic tissue and collagen. This process affects tissues rich in elastic fibers and multiple systems of the organism, the cutaneous, ocular and vascular being the most common. These findings progress through the life of the affected person. We present 4 cases in the same family, with heterogeneous clinic pattern and evolution.
