  • Title: Multiple aggressive squamous skin cancers in association with nonbullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma.
    Author: Brown VL, Farrant PB, Turner RJ, Price ML, Burge SM.
    Journal: Br J Dermatol; 2008 May; 158(5):1125-8. PubMed ID: 18279460.
    Abstract:
    Nonbullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma (NBCIE) is one of the autosomal recessive inherited non-syndromic ichthyoses and is currently diagnosed on clinical grounds alone. Skin cancer is not a recognized complication of NBCIE. We report here two NBCIE patients who have developed multiple aggressive nonmelanoma skin cancers, predominantly cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. NBCIE may be a risk factor for skin cancer development.
