Abstract

We report on a family with co-occurrence of affective disorder and Hailey-Hailey disease in two brothers and the mother. The putative chromosomal locus of Hailey-Hailey disease, which is a rare dominantly inherited dermatosis, may be a promising candidate region for genetic studies in affective disorder.
