Incontinentia Pigmenti

Abstract
An infant with IP, here presented, typifies the early course of this syn drome. Diagnosis can and should be made in the first stage by a combina tion of the clinical appearance and the characteristic histology. The physician must be aware of the frequent associated manifestations, so that he may deal as effectively as possible with them. He should inform and reassure the parents as to the future self-limited course of all of the cutaneous lesions. Genetic counseling is another important responsibility.
