Ectodermal dysplasia (ED); is a rare disorder affecting ectodermal derivatives i.e. skin, nails, teeth, hair and sweat glands. It is divided into many subtypes. Among those, two major types involve (a) Hypohidrotic /Anhidrotic ED (Christ-Siemens-Touraine Syndrome) and (b) Hidrotic ED (Clouston Syndrome). Here, we present a case of hypohidrotic ED in a 19 years old male as a rare presentation in our region.
