Q
Papillon Lefevre syndrome
A
Papillon Lefevre is the french Chef That Sucks at Cooking:
- picture a french chef that sucks at cooking to remind you of the CTSC gene mutation
- he will not make it in the cooking industry so he is autosomal recessive
- Picture him with no teeth and gingivitis to remind you of the periodontitis/gingivitis leading to premature loss of teeth.
- he is trying to hold the spoon to cook, but it keeps slipping because of the transgradiens PPK and hyperhidrosis (like mal de meleda)
- he is pinching his nose shut because he smells a terrible odor (from palms and soles)
- hes wearing a large chefs hat to remind you of dural calcifications
