The parents informed that the baby was born, enclosed in a constricting parchmentlike membrane (collodion baby) that had gradually comeoff.

CLINICAL REPORT Congenital Reticular Ichthyosiform Erythroderma — Ichthyosis Variegata: a Case Report and Review of the Literature

We present a 32-year-old white patient with congenital reticular ichthyosiform erythroderma, also known as ichthyosis variegata. The patient had typical clinical features with areas of normal appearing skin surrounded by erythematous hyperkeratotic patches. The smaller ‘‘confetti-like’’ patches were mostly present on the trunk, while the larger areas forming a reticular pattern predominated on ...

Multicystic dysplastic kidney in association with congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma.

Multicystic dysplastic kidney is a noninherited congenital disease. Association of this disease with abnormalities of various organs is common. We, however, report a rare case of multicystic dysplastic kidney associated with congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma in an infant. Different developmental origins of the skin and the kidney can explain the scarcity of concurrent congenital skin and ki...
