Alternative titles and symbols : Urban-rifkin-davis syndrome; URDS; Cutis laxa with severe pulmonary, gastrointestinal, and urinary abnormalities;
Description : Cutis laxa is a collection of disorders that are typified by loose and/or wrinkled
skin that imparts a prematurely aged appearance. Face, hands, feet, joints, and torso
may be differentially affected. The skin lacks elastic recoil, in marked contrast
to the hyperelasticity apparent in classic Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (see 130000). These
properties are nearly always attributable to loss, fragmentation, or severe disorganization
of dermal elastic fibers (summary by Davidson and Giro, 2002). Patients with autosomal
recessive cutis laxa type IC exhibit generalized cutis laxa in association with impaired
pulmonary, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, musculoskeletal, and dermal development
(summary by Callewaert et al., 2013). For general phenotypic description and a discussion
of genetic heterogeneity of autosomal recessive cutis laxa, see ARCL1A (219100).;
