ABSTRACT
Congenital cutis laxa is a rare inherited disorder of connective tissue manifested by loose and hanging skin, resulting in a prematurely-aged appearance. Cutis laxa may be inherited in an autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive and X-linked recessive pattern or an acquired form. In this report we describe a patient with congenital cutis laxa and growth retardation. The skin showed loose folds, wrinkling, and sagging of the face, abdomen, and both thighs. His weight and height were below the 3rd percentile. He had no family history for this skin disease.
