Congenital perceptive hearing loss and atopic dermatitis.

Two brothers were suffering from perceptive hearing loss, atopic dermatitis and mild palmophantar keratoderma. There was a predisposition to atopic disease in the maternal family, and palmoplantar keratosis as a dominant trait in the paternal family. Atopoc dermatitis and palmoplantar keratoderma separately have been reported to co-exist with hearing loss, but a combination of all three has not so far been reported.
