Abstract

Dorfman-Chanarin syndrome is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder characterized by congenital ichthyosis and presence of intracellular lipid droplets in most tissues. Here, we present a patient from Turkey, who is the fourth Turkish case in the literature with this syndrome, and we review the previous reported cases. He was also the second case reported with hyperlipidemia.
