[Goltz syndrome]
Abstract
Goltz syndrome or focal dermal hypoplasia is a hereditary disorder, is a rare mesodermal hypoplasia found primarily in females. It is characterized by linear hypoplasia of the skin and tumors of fat or lipomatous lesions. There are significant defects of the skeleton, dental structures, eyes, soft tissues and skin. In our work an example of new-born female with this syndrome is reported, and a review of 136 cases from the literature is presented.
