    Summary

    This case study details Rubinstein-Taybi Syndrome with rare eye abnormalities and multiple keloids. Skin and fibroblast studies revealed a reduced cell duplication time, suggesting a potential cellular mechanism.

    Area of Science:

    • Genetics
    • Ophthalmology
    • Dermatology

    Background:

    • Rubinstein-Taybi Syndrome (RTS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by intellectual disability, distinctive facial features, and broad thumbs/toes.
    • Ocular and dermatological manifestations are documented but can vary significantly among affected individuals.

    Observation:

    • This report presents an unusual RTS case with significant ocular anomalies including blepharoptosis, unilateral microphthalmia, iris, lens, and choroidal colobomas, and optic nerve pit.
    • The patient also exhibited spontaneous multiple keloids, a less common dermatological finding in RTS.

    Findings:

    • Histopathological examination of skin biopsies and fibroblast cultures indicated a reduced cell duplication time.
    • This cellular finding may offer insights into the pathogenesis of both the keloid formation and potentially other connective tissue abnormalities in RTS.

    Implications:

    • Understanding the cellular kinetics in RTS could lead to novel therapeutic targets for managing associated connective tissue disorders.
    • This case highlights the importance of comprehensive ophthalmological and dermatological evaluations in RTS patients to identify a broader spectrum of potential complications.
