  • Title: Noonan's syndrome with extensive verrucae.
    Author: Bernier-Buzzanga J, Su WP.
    Journal: Cutis; 1990 Sep; 46(3):242-6. PubMed ID: 2225932.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of a patient with multiple findings characteristic of Noonan's syndrome, including a severe lymphedema present since early infancy, hypertelorism, low-set and prominent ears, broad facies, low posterior hairline, high arched palate, broad short neck, slightly short stature, and moderate dental malocclusion. In addition, extensive verrucae planae, verrucae vulgares, and condylomata acuminata occurred and were refractory to conventional therapy. To our knowledge, this is the first report of an association of Noonan's syndrome with extensive verrucae. We speculate that it is related to immunodeficiency as a consequence of loss of immunoglobulins and lymphocytes from intestinal lymphangiectasia. Cutaneous findings and other physical anomalies reported in patients with Noonan's syndrome are reviewed.
