Werner syndrome
Werner syndrome is a disorder of early and rapid aging that begins in adolescence or early adulthood. Most individuals with Werner syndrome appear of old age by the time they are 30 or 40 years old. Wrinkled skin, being of short height, baldness, and muscular weakness are common symptoms.
