Abstract
We report a four-generation kindred with the complex of myxomas, spotty pigmentation and endocrine overactivity. This kindred demonstrates a relatively limited phenotypic expression with predominance of cutaneous features. Male-to-male transmission confirms the autosomal dominant nature of the condition. We propose that pilonidal sinus may be an associated manifestation in this kindred.
