" /> Oculotrichodysplasia - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Oculotrichodysplasia;

Symbol : OTD;

CISMeF acronym : OTD;

Type : Other, mainly phenotypes with suspected mendelian basis;

Description : Cecatto-De-Lima et al. (1988) described a brother and sister, the offspring of first cousins, with retinitis pigmentosa, trichodysplasia, dental anomalies, and onychodysplasia. The brother and sister belonged to a sibship of 13. The hair anomaly in the female proband consisted of generalized hypotrichosis with sparse scalp, axillary, and pubic hair as well as scanty eyelashes and sparse eyebrows in the distal two-thirds. Scanning electron microscopy showed structural changes in the hairs. The finger- and toenails were fragile and brittle. The teeth were few and carious with extensive extractions. The skin was dry and scaling. The deciduous teeth had been small, pointed, and widely spaced, but they had erupted at the normal time. The hypotrichosis in the brother was less severe. His retinitis pigmentosa was also less severe, but this was probably because he was younger than his sister. *FIELD* RF 1.
