    Abstract

    A 14-year-old girl with ichthyosis and severe liver disease is compared to 35 reported cases of KID or Senter syndrome. Common manifestations such as ichthyosis (35/35 patients), sensorineural deafness (33/34), "ectodermal dysplasia" (25/28), corneal abnormality (26/31) were present in the proposita, while less common manifestations such as chronic infections (15/20) and neuromuscular disease (12/35) were absent. Two families with vertical transmission and 28 sporadic cases are compatible with an autosomal dominant form of KID syndrome, while one inbred sibship with liver disease suggests the existence of an autosomal recessive form. The proposita was similar to the latter patients in having progressive cirrhosis necessitating liver transplantation; she also had short stature (10/35 patients) and mental retardation (3/35). Hepatic findings included micronodular cirrhosis, cholestasis, hyperplastic Kupffer cells, abundant Mallory's hyaline, copper accumulation without steatosis, and normal peroxisomes.

        Calculated set of PubMed citations closely related to the selected article(s) retrieved using a word weight algorithm. Related articles are displayed in ranked order from most to least relevant, with the “linked from” citation displayed first.
      • Gene (OMIM)
        Gene records associated with Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) records that cite the current articles in their reference lists.
      • Nucleotide (Weighted)
        Nucleotide records associated with the current articles through the Gene database. These are the related sequences on the Gene record that are added manually by NCBI.
