Neonatal Noonan syndrome with a molluscoid cutaneous excess over the scalp

Genet Couns. 1991;2(4):249-53.

Abstract

The Noonan syndrome is a multiple congenital anomalies syndrome with variable expressivity and autosomal dominant inheritance. We report an observation of a newborn with Noonan syndrome and an unusual molluscoid cutaneous excess over the scalp that might represent a new skin manifestation in Noonan Syndrome rather than a consequence of lymphatic dysplasia.
