Caption:
This image depicted a close dorsal view of a child’s hands. The picture highlighted abnormalities that had manifested due to a rare recessive genetic disorder referred to as Donohue syndrome, formerly referred to as leprechaunism. Affected individuals may present with a thickening and bronzing of the skin, both of which can be seen in the case of this 3-year-old boy. Also note the hyperdevelopment of the child’s penis, as well as the boy’s low-set ears, flared nostrils, and widely-spaced eyes. See PHIL 25036 through 25043, for other views of this patient’s condition.
