Birth/infancy
TABLE 47-1
Features of Selected Ichthyoses with Dominant Inheritance
DIAGNOSIS
Fine or centrally tacked-down scale with superficial fissuring; relative flexural sparing, worse on lower extremities; hyperlinear palms and soles
Ichthyosis vulgaris
TABLE 47-1
Features of Selected Ichthyoses with Dominant Inheritance
DIAGNOSIS
Heterogeneous; may have verrucous, firm, hyperkeratotic (hystrix) spines, often linearly arrayed in flexural creases; blisters; may have erythroderma and/or palmar/plantar keratoderma
Epidermolytic ichthyosis
TABLE 47-1
Features of Selected Ichthyoses with Dominant Inheritance
DIAGNOSIS
Redness and blistering at birth; later develop hyperkeratosis, accentuated over flexures; mauserung (molting): collarette-like lesion where uppermost epidermis has been lost
Superficial epidermolytic ichthyosis
TABLE 47-1
Features of Selected Ichthyoses with Dominant Inheritance
DIAGNOSIS
Generalized hyperkeratosis and figurate, migratory red patches
Erythrokeratodermia variabilis, Generalized type
TABLE 47-1
Features of Selected Ichthyoses with Dominant Inheritance
DIAGNOSIS
Localized hyperkeratotic plaques with figurate, migratory red patches
Erythrokeratodermia variabilis, Localized type
TABLE 47-1
Features of Selected Ichthyoses with Dominant Inheritance
DIAGNOSIS
Erythematous, scaly plaques, symmetrically distributed over extremities, buttocks, and face; stabilize in early childhood; trunk tends to be spared
Progressive symmetric erythrokeratoderma
TABLE 47-1
Features of Selected Ichthyoses with Dominant Inheritance
DIAGNOSIS
Progressive corneal opacification; either mild generalized hyperkeratosis or discrete erythematous plaques, which may be symmetric; neurosensory deafness
Keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness (KID) syndrome
TABLE 47-1
Features of Selected Ichthyoses with Dominant Inheritance
DIAGNOSIS
ASSOCIATED FEATURES
Keratosis pilaris; atopy
Ichthyosis vulgaris
TABLE 47-1
Features of Selected Ichthyoses with Dominant Inheritance
DIAGNOSIS
ASSOCIATED FEATURES
Frequent skin infections; characteristic pungent odor
Epidermolytic ichthyosis
TABLE 47-1
Features of Selected Ichthyoses with Dominant Inheritance
DIAGNOSIS
ASSOCIATED FEATURES
Red patches move over minutes to hours; may be triggered by changes in temperature
Erythrokeratodermia variabilis, Generalized type
TABLE 47-1
Features of Selected Ichthyoses with Dominant Inheritance
DIAGNOSIS
ASSOCIATED FEATURES
Hyperkeratotic plaques may be induced by trauma; considerable intrafamilial variability
Erythrokeratodermia variabilis, Localized type
