On the other hand, the ADCL pattern is multifarious in presentation between the onset of childhood and adult life [4]. [cureus.com]

Patients with cutis laxa, especially Type II, present facial features that must be considered in the planning of airway management, pulmonary emphysema, cor pulmonale, and right-sided heart failure. [accesspediatrics.mhmedical.com]

Since the connective tissue is the tissue that helps body growth as well as serving as a scaffold for cells and organs, the clinical presentation and mode of inheritance is heterogeneous. [igenomix.eu]

Affected individuals should talk to their physician and medical team about their specific case, associated symptoms and overall prognosis. [rarediseases.org]

Early referral of these patients to receive medical and surgical treatment in a specialized medical center would be the main course to determine the prognosis and to avoid more systemic complications. [cureus.com]
