[Corneal lesions in Kindler syndrome: a case report].
[kindler syndrome]
Kindler
syndrome
is
a
rare
autosomal
recessive
genodermatosis
belonging
to
the
class
of
bullous
poikiloderma
.
Corneal
lesions
are
rare
.
We
report
a
case
of
ocular
lesions
in
this
syndrome
.
We
report
the
case
of
a
57
-
year
-old
patient
followed
since
childhood
in
dermatology
with
the
diagnosis
of
Kindler
syndrome
.
He
presented
to
the
ophthalmology
department
with
decreased
vision
.
Ophthalmologic
examination
showed
symblepharon
,
ectropion
in
both
eyes
,
and
corneal
deformation
.
The
role
played
by
the
abnormal
protein
in
epithelial
integrity
suggests
that
ocular
and
more
particularly
corneal
involvement
is
not
rare
in
Kindler
syndrome
.
In
fact
,
it
is
less
known
by
ophthalmologists
and
dermatologists
are
not
aware
of
the
ophthalmologic
manifestations
.
