Michelin tire syndrome is described in a two month old infant of Filipino-Saudi parents. The infant had generalized excessive folding of skin and facial dysmorphism. The skin biopsy showed excessive adipose tissue in reticular dermis, papillary dermis and around adnexa. Spontaneous partial improvement in skin folding was noted on follow up. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case ever reported locally of Michelin tire.
在一名父母分别为菲律宾人和沙特人的两个月大婴儿身上发现了米其林轮胎综合征。该婴儿全身皮肤过度折叠且面部畸形。皮肤活检显示网状真皮、乳头真皮以及附属器周围有过多的脂肪组织。随访时发现皮肤折叠有自发的部分改善。据我们所知,这是本地首次报道的米其林轮胎综合征病例。
