Duchenne muscular dystrophy with Kocher-Debre-Semelaigne syndrome: a double jeopardy
As a very rare coincidence, our patient suffered from two different diseases with similar presentation which are DMD and KDSS. Subtle clinical clues of joint contractures and goitre helped us identify these unrelated co-existing diseases. An alternate diagnosis must be thought of when all clinical findings cannot be explained by a single disease.
