Diagnostic Pitfalls in Newborns and Babies with Blisters and Erosions [PDF]
Establishing the correct diagnosis in newborns presenting with blisters and erosions is not always a straightforward process. Many different disease entities including acquired (i.e., infectious, immunobullous, traumatic) and inherited disorders have to be taken into consideration.

Bilateral Systematised Epidermolytic Epidermal Nevus: A case report. [PDF]

Acral lamellar ichthyosis with amino acid substitution in the C‐terminus of keratin 2
Abstract Background Most cases of hereditary ichthyoses present with generalized scaling and skin dryness. However, in some cases skin involvement is restricted to particular body regions as in acral lamellar ichthyosis. Objectives We report on the genetic basis of acral ichthyosis in two families presenting with a similar phenotype.

Ichthyosis bullosa of Siemens: Response to topical tazarotene
In 1937, Siemens described a Dutch family with superficial blistering, flexural hyperkeratosis, and characteristic mauserung appearance. Since then, less than 20 kindreds with this condition have been described in the English dermatologic literature. A 14-year-old boy presented with history of recurrent blistering and peeling of skin since the age of 1

Ichthyosis Bullosa of Siemens: Report of a Sporadic Case
AbstractWe report a sporadic case of ichthyosis bullosa of Siemens occurring in a Korean boy. In this report, the varied findings of the clinical features in one subject over five years are presented along with an investigation of the ultrastructural alteration.

Ichthyosis Bullosa of Siemens–A Disease Involving Keratin 2e
Ichthyosis bullosa of Siemens (IBS) is a congenital bullous ichthyosis without erythroderma. In contrast to bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma (BCIE), there is a relatively mild involvement of the skin and epidermolytic hyperkeratosis (EHK) is restricted to the upper suprabasal layers of the epidermis.
