Gerodermia osteodysplastica in a Bedouin sibship: further delineation of the syndrome. [Case Reports, Journal Article]
Clin Dysmorphol 1997 Jan; 6(1):51-5.


We report a Bedouin family with gerodermia osteodysplastica in which there are two affected female siblings. They have a prematurely aged face with loose and wrinkled skin, joint laxity/dislocation, and osteoporosis. Unusual traits that have not been previously reported in association with gerodermia osteodysplastica were ear anomalies and an abnormal EEG.
