CASE 4—A BABY GIRL WITH LINEAR VESICLES ON THE ARMS AND THE LEGS Meena Moossavi MD, Vicky Langsam MD, George Murakawa MD PhD HISTORY A one-month old Caucasian girl of normal gestation presented with an asymptomatic rash on her arms and legs that developed at birth. The rash did not respond to treatment with oral antibiotics and topical silvadene cream. There was no significant family history. Her normal older brother, sister, and mother are unaffected. EXAMINATION The patient had multiple fluid-filled vesicles on an erythematous base distributed on the arms and legs, following the lines of Blaschko. The scalp, face and trunk were spared. The eyes were normal and the neurologic examination was age appropriate. There was no developmental delay noted. LABORATORY Genetic testing: pending. HISTOPATHOLOGY A biopsy from a vesicle on the thigh revealed a focus of intraepidermal vesicle formation containing numerous eosinophils. The surrounding epidermis showed eosinophilic spongiosis and occasional dyskeratotic epidermal cells. COURSE AND THERAPY The vesicular lesions resolved by three months of age and verrucous papules developed on the right foot, left leg and left chest at four months. No eye abnormalities were found on exam by the ophthalmologist. At five months, a slight developmental delay was noted by the pediatrician, and the patient was referred to pediatric neurology for further work up.

cases diagnosis/discussions case 7—incontinentia pigmenti Incontinentia pigmenti (IP), also known as Bloch-Sulzberger syndrome, is an X-linked dominant, monogenic disease. Patients can present with neurologic, ophthalmologic, dental, and cutaneous findings. IP was first reported in 1906 by Garrod, and later defined clinically by Bloch and Sulzberger. The gene responsible for 80% of IP cases is NEMO/IKK- g , located on chromosome Xq28. NEMO, short for nuclear factor- k B (NF- k B) essential modulator, is a key component in NF- k B signaling pathways affecting cellular apoptosis. Almost all NEMO mutations destroy gene function, perhaps causing enhanced sensitivity to apoptosis and dysregulation of cellular homeostasis. Extracutaneous signs are also common in IP. Delayed dentition, partial anodontia, or cone-shaped teeth may occur in 80% of cases. The absence of lateral incisors and premolars in unaffected siblings and mothers can be a clue to the diagnosis. 30% of patients demonstrate retinal pigment epitheliopathy, and this is believed to cause other ocular findings like cataracts, leukocoria, optic atrophy, strabismus, and microphthalmos. Neurologic problems include seizures, developmental delay, mental retardation, ataxia, spasticity, microcephaly, and hypoplasia of the corpus callosum. Associated cardiac abnormalities, dwarfism, spina bifida, and hemiatrophy have been described. The histopathology of IP is most specific in stage 1, which manifests as spongiotic eosinophil-filled epidermal vesicles. In stage 2, acanthosis, papillomatosis, and hyperkeratosis with dyskeratotic keratinocytes are visualized. The hyperpigmented lesions of stage 3 and the hypopigmented lesions of stage 4 exhibit nonspecific histologic findings. Moreover, the presence of eosinophils in vesicular lesions, brain tissue, and peripheral blood suggests a possible immunologic reaction to an abnormal protein expressed by the mutated gene during early life. Referrals to genetics, dentistry, ophthalmology, and neurology are key for evaluation for extracutaneous manifestations.

Incontinentia Pigmenti Sultan Al-Khenaizan, MBBS, FRCPC Incontinentia pigmenti (IP) is an X-linked dominant (XLD) disorder that was first described in 1906 by Garrod, and subsequently named after Bloch and Sulzberger. The skin lesions in IP follow four well-characterized successive stages: vesicular, verrucous, whorl or streak-like hyperpigmentation, and hypopigmented scars. Skin appendages, including hair and teeth are commonly affected in IP, with scarring alopecia and peg-shaped teeth. IP also affects many other body systems, most commonly the central nervous system (CNS) and the eyes. Almost all patients with IP are females because of the lethality of the disease in males. Case Report From the Department of Medicine, King Fahad National Guard Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. leaving no marks. The rest of the physical examination was unremarkable. Skin examination of the mother revealed multiple white, hypopigmented atrophic swirls and streaks along the Blaschko lines. Mouth examination revealed hypodontia and conical widely spaced teeth. The diagnosis of incontinentia pigmenti was made. CT scan and MRI of the brain revealed no abnormality. Electroencephalogram study was normal and there were no more seizures. The infant was discharged home in good condition on oral phenobarbitol. At three months' follow-up, the pigmentation had extended to most of the lower extremities and sides of the trunk (Figure 1), with no other skin changes. Neurological examination by the neurologist was normal.
