A rare, genetic, progeroid syndrome disorder characterized by a prematurely aged appearance (including lipoatrophy, thin, translucent skin, sparse, thin hair, and skeletal muscle atrophy), delayed tooth eruption, keloid-like lesions on pressure regions, and skeletal abnormalities including marked acroosteolysis, brachydactyly with small hands and feet, kyphoscoliosis, osteopenia, and progressive joint contractures in the fingers and toes.
