Dubowitz syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by intrauterine and postnatal growth retardation, microcephaly, moderate mental retardation, typical craniofacial anomalies, and eczematous skin lesions. We report a case of Dubowitz syndrome associated with ichthyosiform skin changes.
