title: [Skin and its main neurocristopathies].
abstract: The neurocristopathies encompass genetic disorders targeting some structures originating from the neural crest development. Hence, skin is affected by some clinical manifestations of these disorders. This review covers the main aspects found in neurofibromatosis, tuberous sclerosis, incontinentia pigmenti, neurocutaneous melanoblastosis, basal cell naevomatosis and the epidermal naevus syndrome.
