Extensive cutaneous mycoses have been described in patients with the keratitis, ichthyosis, and deafness (KID) syndrome. We present a case occurring in a 48-year-old woman where improvement in the ichthyosiform dermatosis, stabilization of her ocular disease, and apparent partial prevention of further cutaneous malignancies occurred in association with ketoconazole therapy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
