Abstract

Tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome type I (TRPS I) is characterized by a bulbous nose, sparse hair and epiphyseal coning. Autosomal dominant and recessive transmission are suggested. The presence of cone-shaped epiphyses, the major complaint of patients due to swelling over the phalangeal joints, requires differential diagnosis among various syndromes. This paper, describing a ten-year-old girl with TRPS I, aims to bring the features of the syndrome to medical attention.
