Acquired acrodermatitis enteropathica
Abstract
Acrodermatitis enteropathica has an hereditary, infantile form and an acquired form which usually develops secondary to total parenteral nutrition. Both forms are caused by a zinc deficiency. The use of a reduced serum alkaline phosphatase level as a marker for acrodermatitis enteropathica is presented in addition to a case of the acquired form of the disease.
