Menkes Kinky Hair Syndrome in a Black Infant

open access: closedArchives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1974
Copper deficiency has been shown to be characteristic of kinky hair syndrome, and it is postulated to be responsible for the clinicopathological features of this sex-linked, recessive, neurodegenerative disorder. The syndrome includes seizures, mental retardation, abnormal hair, skeletal deformities, abnormally tortuous arteries, hypothermia, and early

MENKES' KINKY-HAIR SYNDROME

open access: closedThe Lancet, 1972
Abstract Copper deficiency has been demonstrated in seven babies with Menkes' kinky-hair syndrome. Gross changes in free sulphydryl groups in hair keratin, consistent with copper deficiency, probably explain the kinky hair. Copper deficiency also explains the important changes in the elastic fibres in the arterial walls, the scorbutic bone changes ...

Early osseous abnormalities in Menkes' Kinky Hair Syndrome

open access: closedPediatric Radiology, 1979
Bone changes in a 4 m.o. infant with Menkes' Kinky Hair Syndrome, who also had a skeletal survey as a newborn, are reported. Whereas the late bone changes were diagnostic, the neonatal ones were similar to congenital rubella and cytomegalic virus infection. However the distribution of the metaphyseal changes were different.

Menkes kinky hair disease (Menkes syndrome). A case report.

open access: closedActa dermatovenerologica Alpina, Pannonica, et Adriatica, 2006
Menkes disease (MD) is a rare genetic neurodegenerative disorder. It is caused by a mutation in the ATP7A gene, which codes for the copper-transporting ATPase in the cell organelles. Dysfunction of many copper-dependent enzymes results in low concentrations of copper in some tissues and accumulation of copper in others.

Menkes Kinky-Hair Syndrome (Trichopoliodystrophy)

open access: closedAmerican Journal of Diseases of Children, 1973
Kinky-hair syndrome, a progressive neurodegenerative disorder which affects infant males and is characterized by unusual hair, seizures, psychomotor retardation, growth failure, and early death, was first described by Menkes et al. 1 Since the original description, 11 more cases have been reported from this country.
