We report a fourteen year old girl with clinical manifestations characteristic of this syndrome. She had a characteristic “plucked-bird” appearance, prominent eyes and scalp veins, senile look, loss of scalp hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes, stunted growth, and mottled pigmentation with sclerodermatous changes over the trunk and lower limbs. Radiological changes and decreased high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels were also characteristic of the syndrome. This interesting case is reported for its rarity.</p>}, number={2}, journal={VIMS Health Science Journal }, author={Dr. Kajalkumari Jain and Dr. Ujjwala Shirsath and Dr. Ramesh B.
