AB Ectodermal  Dysplasia  (ED)  is  a  rare  group  of  inherited  disorders.  It  was  originally  described  by  Charles  Darwin  in  1875.  The  disorders  arise  from  disturbances  in  one  or  more  ectodermal  structures  and  their  accessory  appendages.  The  absence,  or  deficient  function,  of  at  least  two  derivatives  of  the  ectoderm  constitutes  a  form  of  ectodermal  dysplasia.  Each  combination  of  defects  represents  another  type  of  ectodermal  dysplasia  and  has  a  specific  name.
