Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis (ARCI) is a group of hereditary, nonsyndromic disorders of keratinization. ARCI encompasses several different clinical presentations and is caused by various genetic mutations. Commonly, ARCI presents with a taut, thick, shiny stratum corneum called a collodion membrane, but patients with mutations in CYP4F22 frequently present only with erythroderma. We report the case of a patient who was heterozygous for a pathogenic variant and a variant of uncertain significance in the CYP4F22 gene and presented with a collodion membrane and developed a mild ichthyosis phenotype.
Keywords: abnormal keratinization; collodion membrane; congenital ichthyosis; cyp4f22; cyp4f22- related congenital ichthyosis.
