| Abstract |
|
Epidermolytic hyperkeratosis is a type of ichthyosis. We present a case of epidermolytic hyperker-
atosis in 7 months old male infant who developed generalized erythematous hyperkeratosis & vesicles
at birth.
Later, the skin lesions progressed to characteristic thick, grayish dark brown scales affecting
flexural & intertriginous areas. Histological examination revealed hyperkeratosis, vacuolation of
Malpighian cells & markedly thickening of granular layer containing many keratohyaline granules. |
