Hereditary sclerosing poikiloderma with tendon and pulmonary involvement
MONDO:0014310Hereditary fibrosing poikiloderma-tendon contractures-myopathy-pulmonary fibrosis syndrome is a rare, genetic, hereditary poikiloderma syndrome characterized by early-onset poikiloderma (mainly on the face), hypotrichosis, hypohidrosis, muscle and tendon contractures with varus foot deformity, progressive proximal and distal muscle weakness in all extremities, and progressive pulmonary fibrosis. Mild lymphedema of the extremities, growth retardation, liver impairment, exocrine pancreatic insufficiency and hematologic abnormalities are additional variable features.
Also known as: POIKTMP syndrome, POIKTMP, hereditary fibrosing poikiloderma with tendon contractures, myopathy, and pulmonary fibrosis, hereditary fibrosing poikiloderma-tendon contractures-myopathy-pulmonary fibrosis syndrome, poikiloderma, hereditary fibrosing, with tendon contractures, myopathy, and pulmonary fibrosis, poikiloderma, hereditary sclerosing, with tendon and pulmonary involvement
