rare genetic disorder affecting hair, facial features, and finger bones
Trichorhinophalangeal Syndrome (TRPS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by distinctive facial features, abnormalities in the hair, and malformations of the fingers and toes. Individuals with TRPS often have sparse, slow-growing hair, a bulbous nose, and cone-shaped epiphyses in the phalanges, which can lead to joint issues and short stature.
