PY - 2006 T2 - Syndromes: Rapid Recognition and Perioperative Implications AB - Ectodermal dysplasia is a rare group of inherited disorders. It was first described by Charles Darwin in 1875. The disorders arise from disturbances in one or more ectodermal structures and their accessory appendages. The absence, or deficient function, of at least two derivatives of the ectoderm constitutes a form of ectodermal dysplasia. Each combination of defects represents another type of ectodermal dysplasia and has a specific name. At least 150 different forms of ectodermal dysplasia have been identified; some of the most common are presented here.
