[Focal dermal hypoplasia with apocrine nevi and striation of bones (author's transl)].

In a 22 year-old female patient affected with focal dermal hypoplasia, multiple apocrine nevi occurred in the sternal region; these nevi may be part of the syndrome. Roentgenograms of the long bones revealed marked longitudinal striations. This anomaly represents a characteristic and hitherto underestimated feature of the syndrome.
