Dubowitz Syndrome - Abstract
Dubowitz syndrome is an uncommon genetic disorder associated with typical facial dysmorphism and a variety of cutaneous, skeletal, systemic, immunological and hematological abnormalities. Thus far, only about 150 cases have been reported worldwide. We describe a nine year old boy with characteristic facies and a spectrum
of other associated features which were consistent with the diagnosis of Dubowitz
syndrome. Prompt diagnosis with regular follow-up and appropriate supportive care
remains the key to the management of this disorder
