Abstract
Today, we can differentiate between more than 20 different types of ichthyosis discussed in detail in this book. Moreover, there are at least 20 reports dealing with isolated cases or with a single family suffering from ichthyosis different in some respects from the well-established ichthyosis types. Some of these reports, especially the earlier ones, do not meet the minimal criteria for delineating a new type of ichthyosis. Clinical details are often insufficient and adequate histologic examinations are lacking. I am aware that some of the cases reported in this chapter may not represent unique conditions, but rather “university hospital syndromes.” However, other case and family reports discussed below certainly concern true emerging syndromes. For detailed information the reader will have to consult the original reference.
