Abstract

Skin lesions are more frequent in subjects with Down syndrome as compared with normal subjects. However, this difference gets evident only after the first year of age. This is confirmed in our population, consisting of 21 children - 13 males -, with an average age of 6,4 months, with Down syndrome (Presented in the International Congress of Neonatal Dermatology - Bari - Italy, September 24-27, 1998).
