Chronic granulomatous disease carrier geno-dermatosis (CGDCGD).
A persistent eruption in light-exposed areas in two related carriers of X-linked chronic granulomatous disease is described. This eruption appears to be a separate entity, rather than a variant of cutaneous lupus erythematosus or Jessner's disease. Recognition may enable detection of carrier females prior to the birth of an affected son, so that genetic counselling and antenatal diagnosis can be instituted.
