Description: (OMIM) |
Aplasia cutis congenita (ACC) is defined as congenital localized absence of skin. The skin appears as a thin, transparent membrane through which the underlying structures are visible. The location is usually on the scalp (Evers et al., 1995). ... |
Clinical Description OMIM |
Tisserand-Perrier (1953) reported a 3-generation family with aplasia cutis congenita restricted to the skull vertex. Parent and child were affected in at least 3 families and sibs and cousins in others (Hodgman et al., 1965). Cutlip et al. ... |
Molecular genetics OMIM |
- Exclusion Studies In 6 families with autosomal dominant isolated ACC, Marneros et al. (2013) screened the KCTD1 gene (613420) but found no pathogenic variants. |
