The affected members present with sparse and woolly hair, severe nail dystrophy and reticulate skin pigmentation. [paperity.org]
Classification of these conditions often presents many nosological challenges, since underlying etiologies and pathogenetics are often not known. [howlingpixel.com]
Pathogenic sequence variant identified here is present in heterozygous conditions in both healthy siblings and a mother. This mutation is a pathogenic, and not present outside the family because we screened 102 ethnically match control individuals. [bmcmedgenet.biomedcentral.com]

Prognosis
Prognosis The prognosis for most patients with ectodermal dysplasia is very good. Morbidity and mortality is related to the absence or dysfunction of eccrine and mucous glands. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Etiology
Classification of these conditions often presents many nosological challenges, since underlying etiologies and pathogenetics are often not known. [howlingpixel.com]
Genetic studies regarding the etiology of EDA revealed that mutations in the ectodysplasin-A and ectodysplasin-A receptor genes are responsible for X-linked and autosomal hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia [5]. [ijcasereportsandimages.com]
Although some ectodermal dysplasia syndromes have no known genetic etiology, the number of ectodermal dysplasia syndromes with an identifiable genetic basis is increasing. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Various classifications have been proposed based on clinical features, mode of inheritance, gene mutations and pathophysiology, but pure EDA manifests with defects in ectodermal structures alone. [ijcasereportsandimages.com]
Pathophysiology Ectodermal dysplasia results from the abnormal morphogenesis of cutaneous and/or oral embryonal ectoderm (ie, hair, nails, teeth, eccrine glands). In some forms, mesodermal abnormalities are also present. [emedicine.medscape.com]
