Ichthyosis and Psoriasis in a Patient with Down Syndrome

Abstract: A 24-year-old man with Down syndrome presented with prominent ichthyosiform skin on his extremities and psoriatic plaques on his chest, back and scalp. The late onset of his ichthyosis without family history suggested that it was not a heritable form but was associated Down syndrome. Such an association with ichthyosis and psoriasis has not been described previously.

“…No such association has been reported in literature so far. A few other numerical abnormalities reported in literature are, a 16-year-old girl with x-linked ichthyosis and Turner's syndrome, a 24-year-old man with Down syndrome and prominent ichthyosiform skin and a Klinefelter Syndrome with ichthyosis vulgaris and pulmonary stenosis [9][10][11]. The case is reported for its rarity and for being the first of its kind to be reported in literature.…”
