Abstract

Restrictive dermopathy is an inherited syndrome characterized clinically by severe growth retardation, abnormal skin, characteristic facies, and multiple congenital contractures. Distinctive radiologic features include deficient mineralization of the clavicles and the skull, overtubulation and frequent modeling defects of the long bones, and occasional abnormalities of the ribs and scapulae.
