title: [Collodion baby and respiratory distress syndrome].
abstract: The congenital ichthyosis appears mainly in the form of collodion baby. This one can be suspected in case of polyhydramnios associated with a snowy aspect of the amniotic liquid in the antenatal echography. The reported four cases of collodion baby were premature children having presented a respiratory distress syndrome of variable gravity. The pulmonary disease was of multifactorial origin. The outcome was favorable for four children.
