A specific DC genetic sequencing was performed according to the clinical criteria of our patient in study. Subsequently, cross-checked information in the main genetic databases was carried out. Additionally, an extensive review of the literature was made to organize the main dermatological aspects in DC. We report a novel variant of DC. Additionally, we share 10 useful and practical messages for dermatologists and any specialist caring for this group of patients. © The Author(s) 2024. %I Archives of Dermatological Research %T Dyskeratosis congenita associated with a novel missense variant in TERT: Approach for the dermatologists %R 10.1007/s00403-024-03050-9 %~ Intellectum
