Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS) is a genodermatosis presenting with a characteristic facial rash (poikiloderma) associated with short stature, sparse scalp hair, sparse or absent eyelashes and/or eyebrows, juvenile cataracts, skeletal abnormalities, radial ray defects, premature aging and a predisposition to cancer. RTS also present dental abnormalities like malformation: microdontia and failure of eruption. We report an unusual patient with Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS), a genodermatosis. The patient is 19 year old with poikiloderma, skeletal abnormalities and dental abnormalities. In this case report evaluation of the various abnormality of the patient has been reviewed.
