title: Congenital ichthyosis and endodermal sinus tumor of the ovary in a ten-year-old child.
abstract: Acquired ichthyosis is very likely to be associated with a malignancy, especially with Hodgkins disease. The association of congenital ichthyosis with malignant tumors has been so far reported only in two instances. Herein we report on a third case. Due to the small number of cases, no conclusion can be drawn about the correlations between the two diseases.
