Abstract excerpt

Keloids are proliferative fibrous growths that result from an excessive tissue response to skin trauma. They often occur sporadically, but in some families a genetic predisposition to keloids has been observed. Here we studied two families with an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern of keloids. One African-American family showed a high degree of variability in the extent of keloid formation between family...
