ICHTHYOSES, Flashcards
• Darier’s disease (keratosis follicularis) mutation, inheritance
AD, calcium ATPase IIA2 (SERCA2).
• Darier’s disease (keratosis follicularis)
Hyperkeratotic papules in seborrheic area
acrokeratosis verruciformis of Hopf, palmar keratoses and pits
cobblestoning of oral and
rectal mucosae
red-white longitudinal nail bands, v-shaped distal nail nicks
Worsened by lithium
• Darier’s disease (keratosis follicularis)
AD, connexin 26 mutation, sporadic
inheritance,
KID syndrome:
AR/sporadic, ABCA12 gene reported
Harlequin fetus
Mutation in ABHD5 gene. Cannot break down triglycerides and these fats accumulate in skin, liver,
muscles, intestine, eyes, and ears.
Chanarin-Dorfman syndrome (Neutral lipid storage disease with ichthyosis):
keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness, generalized mild hyperkeratosis, erythematous, keratotic plaques, palmoplantar keratoderma
nonprogressive sensorineural deafness, progressive bilateral keratitis, with
secondary blindness
KID syndrome:
Large diamond-shaped plaques
of scale, low birth weight, ectropion and eclabium. High mortality rate.
Harlequin fetus
Cross-beta keratin
tonofilament structure
Harlequin fetus
Ichthyosis usually present at birth. Additional features:
hepatomegaly, cataracts, ataxia, hearing loss, short stature, myopathy, nystagmus, and mild
intellectual disability
Chanarin-Dorfman syndrome (Neutral lipid storage disease with ichthyosis):
– Decreased filligrin/profillagrin
Ichthyosis vulgaris
Compact hyperkeratosis with normal granular
XL Ichthyosis
• Steroid sulfatase gene
– Arylsulfatase C
XL Ichthyosis
Corneal opacities, cryptorchidism (testicular cancer risk) and prolonged labor for child’s mother
XL Ichthyosis
– Retention hyperkeratosis and decreased granular layer
Ichthyosis vulgaris
- AD• Onset at 3 months of age
* Atopic derm and KP related
Ichthyosis vulgaris
- Within a few weeks of life
* Neck most prominent (dirty appearance)
XL Ichthyosis
- AD
* K1 and 10
BCIE (EHK)
- AR
* Transglutaminase-1, 12R-lipoxygenase (ALOX12B), lipoxygenase 3 (ALOXE3)
NBCIE
- Fine scaling with erythema
- Flexures prominent
- MR and growth retardation
- Colloidian baby
