Service de Pédodontie, CCTD, CHU, Rabat, Morocco.

We studied a large Moroccan family in which anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia is transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait. Fourteen family members, both males and females, were affected and they all had a common ancestor. Linkage analysis by homozygosity mapping in this family will permit the gene localisation of this rare form of anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.

D004476	Ectodermal Dysplasia	A group of hereditary disorders involving tissues and structures derived from the embryonic ectoderm. They are characterized by the presence of abnormalities at birth and involvement of both the epidermis and skin appendages. They are generally nonprogressive and diffuse. Various forms exist, including anhidrotic and hidrotic dysplasias, FOCAL DERMAL HYPOPLASIA, and aplasia cutis congenita.
