Incontinentia Pigmenti: A Newborn with Characteristic Skin Lesions and Bilateral Optic Atrophy: Case Report and Review of Literature

Abstract

Incontinentia Pigmenti (IP) is a rare X-linked dominant disorder with skin, eye, central nervous system (CNS) and tooth abnormalities. According to the reported cases, it is estimated that there have been nearly 900-1200 affected individuals. In this article, the literature is reviewed and a case of IP with characteristic skin lesions and optic atrophy is presented.
