In this case report, a 7-month-old girl with suspected acrodermatitis enteropathica and severe dermatitis experienced a tragic outcome despite zinc treatment, highlighting the challenges of diagnosing and managing this rare genetic disorder.

In this case report, a 10-month-old ethnic minority infant from Xinjiang with acrodermatitis enteropathy improved clinically and biochemically after zinc supplementation, underscoring the importance of early genetic testing for SLC39A4 mutations and individualized zinc therapy in managing this disorder.

This case report describes a 10-month-old minority infant from Xinjiang, China, with acrodermatitis enteropathy due to a SLC39A4 genetic mutation, showing clinical improvement in skin, hair, and zinc levels following zinc supplementation and highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and tailored treatment.

In this case study, a 10-month-old minority infant from Xinjiang, China, with acrodermatitis enteropathy caused by an SLC39A4 gene mutation showed clinical improvement and increased zinc levels following zinc supplementation, highlighting the importance of early genetic testing and customized treatment in managing the disorder.

This report details a case of acrodermatitis enteropathica in a 4-month-old infant, noting the disorder's rarity and familial transmission, and includes a literature review with no new clinical results.

In this study, hair anomalies associated with acrodermatitis enteropathica in a young girl improved significantly after two years of zinc therapy.

This case report describes a rare instance where a child with nonketotic hyperglycinemia developed an acrodermatitis enteropathica-like eruption, likely due to combined zinc and branched chain amino acid deficiencies.

This case report presents the first genetically confirmed case of acrodermatitis enteropathica in Korea, identifying compound heterozygous mutations in the SLC39A4 gene in an 8-month-old boy.

This case report identified two new SLC39A4 mutations in twin patients with acrodermatitis enteropathica, suggesting that different mutations in this gene may lead to varying clinical manifestations of the disorder.

A novel mutation in the SLC39A4 gene was identified in an infant with mild, incomplete acrodermatitis enteropathic symptoms, suggesting genetic testing is beneficial even without the full symptom triad.

In this study, an 11-year-old girl with acrodermatitis enteropathica showed significant improvement in symptoms after oral zinc therapy.

This study reports no new clinical results on oral zinc therapy for acrodermatitis enteropathica but provides demographic data and symptom prevalence among thirty affected children.

This abstract does not provide specific study results or findings, but it notes that the publisher is not responsible for the supplemental content's accuracy and functionality, directing any queries to the article's corresponding author.

This study reviewed literature on pediatric acrodermatitis enteropathica and found that zinc deficiency occurred in 75.9% of cases, with zinc supplementation showing therapeutic efficacy in 91.4% of patients; however, it was often ineffective in those with underlying metabolic disorders.

This case study reported that zinc supplementation improved skin lesions and diarrhea in a 4-month-old breast-fed infant with transient acrodermatitis enteropathica, even though her serum zinc level was nearly normal.

This report describes a 28-year-old male with type 1 diabetes who presented with acrodermatitis enteropathica symptoms, highlighting potential challenges in blood glucose control linked to zinc deficiency.

This case report describes a child with acrodermatitis enteropathica showing dramatic improvement with oral zinc therapy, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and treatment to prevent severe outcomes.

This case report of a 16-month-old girl with acrodermatitis enteropathica, who showed atypical symptoms and normal zinc serum levels, highlights how genetic testing and zinc supplementation led to marked improvement in her condition, underscoring the importance of accurate diagnosis in metabolic disorders.

This study presented two brothers with hereditary acrodermatitis enteropathica who had normal zinc serum levels and experienced skin and hair lesions, but no dental disorders.

Zinc deficiency causes reversible hair loss by disrupting hair growth and stem cell function.

In this report, successful management of inherited acrodermatitis enteropathica, a zinc absorption disorder due to an SLC39A4 gene defect, was demonstrated in an infant through zinc supplementation.

In this case report, a 2.5-year-old boy with biotinidase deficiency, initially misdiagnosed due to overlapping symptoms, showed dramatic improvement in several clinical areas after starting biotin supplementation, but persistent sensorineural hearing loss underscored the importance of early diagnosis for preventing irreversible complications.

This case report describes an 8-year-old boy with acrodermatitis enteropathica who showed significant recovery from severe symptoms after receiving a therapeutic zinc supplement.

This case study documents a boy with zinc-responsive acral hyperkeratosis improving significantly after zinc supplementation, suggesting it could result from inadequately treated acrodermatitis enteropathica.

This case report highlights an atypical presentation of acrodermatitis enteropathica in an 18-year-old male, exhibiting symptoms like erythrokeratoderma variabilis with a positive response to high-dose oral zinc, underscoring the importance of considering zinc deficiency in unusual skin conditions.
