INTRODUCTION: The @entity6038 was first described in 1956. @entity6038 is the most common genetic form of @entity1 @entity28 and the incidence of @entity6038 has been estimated to 1 in 10,000 or 25,000 live births. Skin-picking was frequently reported in @entity6038 and two @entity1 who displayed repetitive skin picking are described. OBSERVATIONS: Two childrens (6 year-old @entity1 and 7 year-old @entity1 ) were examined and noted superficial ulcers of their arms and legs. This cutaneous lesions were induced by @entity1 themselves. Skin-picking, in our cases, were associated with behavior problems (temper tantrums, violence). CONCLUSIONS: Skin-picking appears to occur in the great majority of @entity1 with @entity6038 and constitutes a minor criteria of diagnosis. @entity4182 in @entity6038 appears to be as common as previously features. Significant differences in hair color, sun sensitivity and complexion were found between those @entity1 with chromosome 15 deletion and those with normal chromosome. Association between @entity28 (onset before 6 years) and skin picking constitute a sign for diagnosis of @entity6038 .
