Abstract:
KID (keratitis, ichthyosis, deafness) syndrome is a congenital ectodermal defect of unknown etiology. Although achilles tendon retraction has been seen on several occasions, no other evidence of skeletal, articular or enthesopathic processes has been described. We report a patient with KID syndrome and acroosteolytic changes on radiographs, along with clinical and radiographic evidence of Jaccoud arthropathy.
