Abstrakt: | Background: Netherton syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disease demonstrating ichthyosis linearis circumflexa, atopic findings, and hair shaft anomalies. Trichorrhexis invaginata is the pathognomonic hair shaft anomaly seen in this syndrome. Objective: In recent years, hair shaft anomalies have been described as "matchstick" and "golf tee" signs. We present a patient with Netherton syndrome diagnosed by the presence of matchstick and golf tee hairs in addition to trichorrhexis invaginata. |
