J Pak Assoc Derma Jan ;22(2):157-62.

Lipoid proteinosis is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder, characterized by infiltration of periodic acid-Schiff positive hyaline material into the skin, oral cavity, larynx and internal organs. The clinical manifestations include hoarseness of voice, beaded papules along the eyelid margins, skin scarring and an inability to protrude the enlarged and thickened tongue. In this paper, we present a case of a young male with features suggestive of lipoid proteinosis. Clinical rarity of this condition prompted this communication.
