Abstract
Goltz syndrome or focal dermal hypoplasia is a rare clinical syndrome presenting with cutaneous, skeletal, dental, ocular, central nervous system and soft-tissue defects. The authors report a female child clinically diagnosed as Goltz syndrome, confirmed to have a novel splice site mutation IVS2+1G>A of PORCN gene. Review of the 80 or so pathogenic mutations reported in the literature shows this to be a new mutation.
