Abstract

Ichthyosis hystrix is an uncommon, heterogenous group of dermatoses which differs both genetically and clinically. It may be inherited as autosomal dominant trait or occur sporadically. It is characterised by spiny hyperkeratotic scales which can vary in expression from a generalised involvement to localised and nevoid forms. We, here by report a case of ichthyosis hystrix in a 9 year old girl, which is sporadic in onset involving face, trunk and extremities.
