This report details a rare case of Ross syndrome in a 25-year-old presenting with hyporeflexia and skin issues. The patient exhibited progressive segmental hypohidrosis and dry, scaly skin, mimicking fungal infections.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • Ross syndrome is a rare neurological disorder characterized by the triad of areflexia, hypohidrosis, and tonic pupils.
  • Skin manifestations are infrequently reported in Ross syndrome.

Observation:

  • A 25-year-old patient presented with hyporeflexia, progressive segmental hypohidrosis, and dry, scaly skin on the palm.
  • The skin findings mimicked tinea manuum, a common fungal infection of the hand.

Findings:

  • This case represents the fourth documented instance of Ross syndrome with associated skin manifestations.
  • Segmental hypohidrosis was identified as the cause of the observed dermatological symptoms.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering Ross syndrome in the differential diagnosis of unexplained hypohidrosis and dermatological conditions.

  • Further research into the link between neurological dysfunction and specific skin changes in Ross syndrome is warranted.
