title: The Russell-Silver syndrome: a case report and brief review of the literature.
abstract: The Russell-Silver syndrome's phenotypic features consist of musculoskeletal abnormalities, genitourinary malformations, craniofacial dysmorphy and cutaneous dyschromia, which is usually reported as café au lait spots. We present the first instances of a large, unilateral, achromic patch as an additional cutaneous manifestation of the Russell-Silver syndrome.
