Abstract
We present the case of a 9-year-old female patient, with a history of prematurity, and growth stubbornness, presenting with clinical picture of early-onset poikiloderma with different clinical features including short stature, sparse eyelashes or eyebrows, with suspected Bloom syndrome vs Rothmund-Thomson syndrome, which was addressed by studying the BLM and RECQL4 genes.
