Aim: To identify clinical and laboratory features that can drive the differential diagnosis of a primary immunodeficiency diseases in patients with ectodermal defects. Methods: Analysis of selected teaching cases. Results: We identified four exemplary cases that allowed to point out specific clues. Conclusions: A careful evaluation of immune and ectodermal signs is the key to the diagnosis. Therefore, a multidisciplinary approach can lead to diagnosis and to an appropriate treatment in most of the cases. © 2012 The Author(s)/Acta Pædiatrica © 2012 Foundation Acta Pædiatrica.
