Pediatr Dermatol. 1994 Sep;11(3):258-60. doi: 10.1111/j.1525-1470.1994.tb00598.x.

Abstract

An 11-year-old girl with Down syndrome had whitish, milia-like lesions on the acral areas of the limbs, and periorbital syringomas. Calcium deposits were the histologic counterparts of the milia-like lesions. This is the first European report of this feature in Down syndrome.
