title: [CHILD syndrome. Case report of a rare genetic dermatosis].
abstract: We report on a 2-month-old girl who developed unilateral ichthyosiform erythrodermia on the right side of her trunk and the right leg 1 week after birth. In addition, there was hexadactyly of her right hand. Apart from that, close physical examinations did not reveal any other defects. We diagnosed this condition as CHILD syndrome (congenital hemidysplasia with ichthyosiform nevus and limb defects).
