X-linked dominant chondrodysplasia punctata: a peroxisomal disorder?

X-linked dominant chondrodysplasia punctata is characterised by resolving irregular punctate calcifications of epiphyses, variable ichthyosis and atrophoderma, short stature, and cataracts. We report on a patient with this syndrome who had transiently abnormal peroxisomal function tests. We review the literature and propose that X-linked dominant chondrodysplasia punctata is a peroxisomal disorder and that its phenotype can be explained by X chromosome lyonisation and the relative proliferation of cells expressing the normal X allele.[1]
