[Family Buschke-Ollendorff syndrome].
Buschke-Ollendorff syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder whose clinical course includes elastic nevi and osteopoikilosis. Histologically, most cases present with a normal amount of collagen in the skin lesions and an increase in elastic fibers, although abortive forms with skin involvement have been described, with a decrease in elastic fibers and an absence of bone alterations. We describe the case of a 41-year-old woman with Buschke-Ollendorff syndrome criteria, and that of her 2-year-old daughter who might present an abortive form of Buschke-Ollendorff.
