Abstract:
Congenital hemidysplasia with ichthyosiform erythroderma and limb defects (CHILD) syndrome is a rare X-linked dominant disorder that is characterized by peculiar cutaneous features commonly associated with skeletal and internal organ involvement. Cutaneous verruciform xanthoma is an uncommon cutaneous manifestation of congenital hemidysplasia with ichthyosiform erythroderma and limb defects syndrome. We present a case presenting with a late onset of a large verruciform xanthoma of the right foot, in addition to the more typical cutaneous features of congenital hemidysplasia with ichthyosiform erythroderma and limb defects syndrome.
