A rare case of bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma in a newborn
Keywords:
Bullous Congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma, Keratinization disorder
Abstract
Bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma is a rare disorder of keratinization. It is associated with defective keratinization leading to skin fragility, blistering and hyperkeratosis. This condition was difficult to distinguish from staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome. We report a case of Bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma in a 72 hour old male baby and discussed the differential diagnosis and management of the disease.
