Abstract:
Hereditary Ectodermal dysplasias are a group of X-linked recessive inherited disorders characterised by primary defects in the development of two or more tissues derived from embryonic ectoderm. The tissues which are affected include skin, hair, nails, eccrine glands and teeth. Here, we report two cases of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in male siblings.
