Abstract

H Syndrome is one of the rarest diseases in the world. It is an autosomal recessive (AR) disorder that occurs due to mutations in the solute carrier family 29.

H Syndrome is characterized by cutaneous hyperpigmentation, hearing loss, hypertrichosis, hypothyroidism, hepatomegaly, flexion contracture of the fingers and toes, short stature, hypertriglyceridemia, diabetes mellitus type one, and hypogonadism.

It was named H syndrome considering the fact that most of the clinical features start with the letter “H.”

Key words: H Syndrome, SLC29A3 gene, hypertrichosis.
