The Cutis laxa syndrome is a group of rare heterogeneous disorders of the elastic tissue characterized mainly by wrinkled, loose skin giving an aged appearance, which may be associated with skeletal abnormalities, developmental abnormalities, and even severe systemic involvement.
Cutis laxa syndrome (CL) is either acquired or congenital. There are several forms of congenital cutis laxa distinguished according to the mode of transmission, the extent of visceral involvement, associated anomalies, and the severity of the disease: autosomal dominant CL, autosomal recessive CL, X-linked CL.
In the light of data from the medical literature and through the observation of 2 sisters followed up in a pediatric dysmorphology consultation for congenital cutis laxa, the authors underline the clinical, paraclinical, etiogenotypic, therapeutic, and evolutionary peculiarities of this rare disease.
