Abstract

Cutis laxa is a rare skin disease of unknown aetiology. Evaluation of the skin shows loss of elastic fibers
with resultant laxity of the skin. We present the case of a 6 year old girl who had normal skin until age 2. She
presented with a four year history of generalized pruritus, lax skin and looked older than her age.
