| Summary: | Isolated congenital anonychia is a rare disorder which is presented by absence of fingernails and toenails since birth without other ectodermal and mesodermal abnormalities. Herein we present a 24-year-old man with anonychia in the hands and feet except in little toenails. Our patient had no abnormality in hair, teeth, skull, oral mucosa or intelligence. He was born from unaffected parents who were second degree relatives. He had no affected siblings but there were some affected persons in the second and third degree relatives so he was diagnosed as a simple autosomal recessive congenital anonychia. |
