Abstract:
The Harlequin fetus is a distinct genetic entity with a strikingly grotesque appearance. Three siblings (two males, one female) with Harlequin Ichthyosis, a rare form of congenital disorder, born to the same parents are presented. The genetic aspects are discussed and the relevant literature is reviewed.
