Abstract :
Yellow nail syndrome, usually autosomal dominant transition and occurs with yellow nails, lymph edema and pleural effusion triad. In this article, a girl, 13 months, who was diagnosed as yellow nail syndrome and followed with pericardial effusion and lymph edema from her birth, has been presented. Yellow nail syndrome has been diagnosed lately due to the occurrence of clinical symptoms which are often more obvious after the puberty. However, neonatal or infant period of pericardial effusion in patients with lymphedema and yellow nail syndrome should be kept in mind.
