abstract = "We report the case of an adolescent with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, who had obsessivecompulsive disorder and was later diagnosed with body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). BDD is a highly distressing, adolescentonset disorder that may lead to social isolation, the
development of comorbid mental health disorders and suicidality. Patients typically lack insight into their BDD and frequently present to dermatologists for medical treatment. In this paper, we address the challenges faced when working with patients with BDD.",
