    Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol. 16 No. 04 October’17 Case report: Keratosis Follicularis Spinulosa Decalvans in a female child- a rare presentation Chowdhury J1, Ghoshal L2, Bannerjee S3 Abstract: Congenital alopecia universalis is a very rare presentation. A 6 year old girl came to us with total alopecia and multiple horny keratosis pilaris like skin lesions all over the body. The alopecia was mostly non-scarring with a few patches of scarring over the scalp. Histology from scalp revealed follicular plugging with perifollicular infiltrate of lymphocytes and plasma cells. The case was diagnosed as Keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans. This is very rare and even rarer in females.

  • Epidermolytic Hyperkeratosis with Ichthyosis Hystrix Geromanta Baleviciené, MD, Vilnius, Lithuania Robert A
    pediatric dermatology Series Editor: Camila K. Janniger, MD, Newark, New Jersey Epidermolytic Hyperkeratosis With Ichthyosis Hystrix Geromanta Baleviciené, MD, Vilnius, Lithuania Robert A. Schwartz, MD, MPH, Newark, New Jersey Epidermolytic hyperkeratosis (EH) is a congenital, autosomal-dominant genodermatosis characterized by blisters.1,2 Shortly after birth, the infant’s skin becomes red and may show bullae. The erythema regresses, but brown verrucous hyperkeratosis persists, particularly accentuated in the flexures. This condition is also known as bullous ichthyosiform erythroderma. The disorder of keratinization has varied clinical manifestations in the extent of cutaneous involve- ment, palmar and plantar hyperkeratosis, and evi- dence of erythroderma. We describe 5 patients, 4 with EH (one of whom had it in localized form and one of whom had an unusual type of ichthyosis hystrix described by Curth and Macklin3-7). Case Reports FIGURE 1. Seven-year-old girl with EH, demonstrating Patient 1—A 7-year-old girl with a cutaneous erup- erythema and verrucous hyperkeratosis (Patient 1). tion since birth characterized by flaccid bullae vary- ing in size. The palms and soles had intense diffuse keratosis from 1 year of age. Her nails, hair, teeth, and mental state were normal. The patient’s mother (Pa- tient 2) had a similar disorder. Skin biopsy specimens showed the changes of EH, with pronounced cellular vacuolation of the middle and upper portions of the malpighian stratum and large, clear, irregular spaces. Cellular boundaries were indistinct. A thickened granular layer was evident with large, irregularly shaped keratohyalin granules. Ultrastructural study showed tonofilament clumping of the malpighian layer and cytolysis.

Abstract: Syndromic hereditary hearing impairment (HHI) is a clinically and etiologically diverse condition that has a profound influence on affected individuals and their families. As cutaneous findings are more apparent than hearing-related symptoms to clinicians and, more importantly, to caregivers of affected infants and young individuals, establishing a correlation map of skin manifestations and their underlying genetic causes is key to early identification and diagnosis of syndromic HHI. In this article, we performed a comprehensive PubMed database search on syndromic HHI with cutaneous abnormalities, and reviewed a total of 260 relevant publications.

  • How to Deal with Skin Biopsy in an Infant with Blisters?
    Review How to Deal with Skin Biopsy in an Infant with Blisters? Stéphanie Leclerc-Mercier Reference Center for Genodermatoses (MAGEC Center), Department of Pathology, Necker-Enfants Malades Hospital, Paris Centre University, 75015 Paris, France; [email protected] Abstract: The onset of blisters in a neonate or an infant is often a source of great concern for both parents and physicians. A blistering rash can reveal a wide range of diseases with various backgrounds (infectious, genetic, autoimmune, drug-related, traumatic, etc.), so the challenge for the dermatologist and the pediatrician is to quickly determine the etiology, between benign causes and life-threatening disorders, for a better management of the patient. Clinical presentation can provide orientation for the diagnosis, but skin biopsy is often necessary in determining the cause of blister formations. In this article, we will provide information on the skin biopsy technique and discuss the clinical orientation in the case of a neonate or infant with a blistering eruption, with a focus on the histology for each etiology.
