| Abstract |
|
Acrdermititis enteropathica is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of zinc absorption and its
cardinal symptoms appear at the time of weaning from breast milk which has been referred to as
most appropriate formula to prevent and treat this disease.
However, recent reports presented Transient Symptomatic Zinc deficiency (TSZD) in infants fed
breast milk whom they treated with transitory zinc supplement with no recurrence.
We experienced a TSZD case in a exclusively breast-fed, post term infant and report it with a brief
review of literature. |
