Ectrodactyly-ectodermal dysplasia-cleft lip/palate syndrome (EEC), is a rare entity characterized by alterations in the skin, hair, nails, apocrine glands and teeth, associated with dimorphisms in extremities and midface dysplasia. It is attributed to a mutation in the p63 gene. These patients require multiple surgical procedures to achieve functional goals. We present the surgical sequence of the interdisciplinary management performed on a patient diagnosed with this syndrome and the functional results obtained. A 5 months old female patient presented to our service with a suspected EEC syndrome. We present the case and the surgical procedures performed to achieve functional results. EEC syndrome is a low frequency patology which requires specialized surgical procedures of different kinds. Different surgical methods and techniques should be considered, due to the number and complexity of the malformations, which is why all human and technical resources must be available for its proper treatment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
