Farber disease in a newborn.
Farber disease is a rare lysosomal storage disease characterized by a clinical triad including painful joint deformity, subcutaneous nodules and hoarseness, due to progressive granulomatous inflammation. We report the case of an early presentation on a female infant who manifested typical signs 1 week after birth.
