Keratitis-Ichthyosis-Deafness Syndrome, Atypical Connexin GJB2 Gene Mutation, and Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma: More Than a Random Association?

Keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness (KID) syndrome is a rare congenital disorder characterized by skin lesions, neurosensorial hypoacusia, and keratitis, usually due to the c.148G→A mutation involving the connexin 26 gene.
