A Family with Flaky Skin
Three siblings share a scaly, lizard-like rash. Neither parent has the condition. What do you think this could be?
Dr Jonathan Schneider walks through another case from his files seen in the acute care clinic. How would you diagnose the 16-, 12,- and 5-year-old Atopy children in this Flaky Family Affair?
Three siblings are seen for a somewhat disfiguring skin condition that has made them the brunt of teasing among their peers. It is characterized by polygonal-shaped scale that makes the skin appear lizard-like and in the case of the 12-year-old girl it is dark enough to look like dirt.Neither parent is affected by the condition but there is a positive family history.
