Ectodermal dysplasia is a rare disorder with defects in two or more of the following structures: the teeth and the skin and its appendages including hair, nails, eccrine, and sebaceous glands. Anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia is the most common type of disease. This rare disorder, also known as Christ-Siemens-Touraine syndrome, manifests as a triad of hypotrichosis, asteatosis, and anhidrosis. In view of the rarity of this entity, a classical case of anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia is reported. We have also provided a review of recent investigations in the area of dental abnormalities in this syndrome.

ABSTRACT Aims To present two rare cases of ectodermal dysplasia presenting with maggot infestation due to atrophic rhinitis. Study design Case report. Setting A tertiary care referral hospital. Presentation Two male children aged about 5 and 8 years presented to the ear, nose, and throat emergency with a history of maggot infestation of the nose. Results Clinical examination was suggestive of ectodermal dysplasia. Intranasal examination was suggestive of atrophic rhinitis. Maggots were removed in the conventional manner. Following a conservative treatment, skin biopsy and nasal mucosal biopsy were done, which confirmed the diagnosis of ectodermal dysplasia. Conclusion Any ectodermal dysplasia patient should be suspected of having atrophic rhinitis and intranasal conservative therapy should be initiated at the earliest to prevent complications like maggots in the nose.

Ectrodactyly-ectodermal dysplasia-clefting syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly that affects tissues of mesodermal and ectodermal origin. Musculoskeletal involvement frequently requires orthopedic intervention. The authors present a review of the literature pertaining to this rare syndrome as well as a case report of a female patient who exhibited the complete clinical triad.
