Descreve-se uma família com síndrome dos cabelos anágenos frouxos (SCAF) associada à distrofia macular. Foram descritos os achados dermatológicos, oftalmológicos e de microscopia óptica e eletrônica de varredura de 11 indivíduos. Dois apresentaram SCAF, sem qualquer alteração ocular. Dos quatro indivíduos com alteração ocular, duas irmãs apresentaram SCAF e dispersões pigmentares em pólo posterior da retina, com coloboma da mácula. Em dois irmãos encontraram-se as mesmas características da SCAF e fundo de olho com dispersões pigmentares em pólo posterior, sem coloboma. Os achados sugerem que essa associação seja uma nova entidade nosológica dentro das displasias ectodérmicas.

The article describes a family with loose anagen hair syndrome (LAHS) associated with macular dystrophy. Complete dermatological and ophthalmological exams, and hair examination under optical and electron microscopy were performed in eleven index cases. Two individuals demonstrated hair findings with LAHS without ocular problems. Within the four cases with ocular problems, two sisters presented with LAHS and pigmentary dispersion on the retina with macular coloboma. Two brothers presented with LAHS and pigmentary dispersion on the retina without macular coloboma. The findings suggest that this new association is a disorder among the ectodermal dysplasia.
