Dubowitz syndrome: atopic dermatitis, low birth weight dwarfism and facial dysmorphism

The association of low birth weight dwarfism, distinct facial dysmorphism and eczematous skin lesions has been described repeatedly since the first description by Dubowitz in 1965. The way of inheritance seems to be in some cases autosomal recessive. Because of the rarity of this entity, another case is reported showing an additional preauricular fistula.
