615704 | OMIM | Poikiloderma, hereditary fibrosing, with tendon contractures, myopathy, and pulmonary fibrosis (POIKTMP) | An autosomal dominant form of hereditary poikiloderma, a genodermatosis characterized by mottled pigmentation, telangiectasia, and epidermal atrophy. POIKTMP features include tendon contracture, myopathy, and progressive pulmonary fibrosis. It manifests from early childhood with telangiectasia and pigmentary anomalies especially on the face and sun-exposed areas, tendon contractures that particularly involve the ankles and feet causing gait disturbance, and development of pulmonary fibrosis during the second decade of life resulting in progressive dyspnea and restrictive impairment of lung function. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
