Rapp–Hodgkin syndrome

Rapp–Hodgkin syndrome
Other names: Ectodermal dysplasia, anhidrotic, with cleft lip/palate[1]
Rapp–Hodgkin Syndrome: frontal bossing, short philtrum, thin upper lip, mildly dysmorphic auricles and prognathism

Rapp–Hodgkin syndrome was formerly thought to be a unique autosomal dominant disorder due to a P63 gene mutation. However, it was recently shown to the same disease as Hay–Wells syndrome.[2]

It was first characterized in 1968.[3]
