Telomere biology disorders (TBD) are a complex set of inherited illnesses characterized by short telomeres. Dyskeratosis congenita (DC), which is now considered a severe TBD phenotype, is characterized by reticulated pigmentary changes, nail dystrophy, premalignant oral leukoplakia, and systemic involvement. This case describes a 2-year-old female with reticulated pigmentary changes and Terry's nails who was found to have a TERT variant and short telomeres; she lacked other mucocutaneous and systemic features of TBD. This report describes a unique clinical presentation of TBD and highlights the importance of upholding suspicion for TBD in individuals with limited or subtle features of classic DC.
端粒生物学障碍（TBD）是一组以端粒缩短为特征的复杂遗传性疾病。先天性角化不良（DC）现被认为是一种严重的TBD表型，其特征为网状色素沉着改变、指甲营养不良、癌前口腔白斑及全身受累。本病例描述了一名2岁女性，有网状色素沉着改变和泰瑞氏甲，发现存在TERT变异及端粒缩短；她缺乏TBD的其他黏膜皮肤和全身特征。本报告描述了TBD一种独特的临床表现，并强调了对于具有经典DC有限或细微特征的个体保持TBD怀疑的重要性。
