Zusammenfassung: | Bloch-Sulzberger Syndrome, also known as Incontinence Pigmentosa (IP), is a rare genodermatosis in which skin involvement occurs in almost all patients. Additionally, other ectodermal tissues like the central nervous system, eyes, hair, nails, and teeth may also be impacted. An X-linked dominant inheritance pattern characterizes the condition. But in our situation, IP caused a mutation in the body cells. There are four steps to the dermatological results. We describe the case of a 12-day-old female who had cutaneous features. It is crucial to make an early diagnosis using criteria like cutaneous symptoms so that quick diagnoses and interventions for other organs can be made to control more deadly complications in the future. |
