Abstract

Incontinentia pigmenti (IP; Bloch-Sulzberger syndrome) is an X-linked dominantly inherited genodermatosis that affects the skin in combination with anomalies of other organs, including the central nervous system. IP results from mutations in the inhibitor of kappa beta kinase gamma (IKBKG), formerly known as NEMO, located on locus Xq28. Absence of IKBKG results in complete inhibition of nuclear factor kappa beta signaling leading to the varied manifestations seen in IP. The wide spectrum of clinical manifestations in IP results from lyonization of the X chromosome with skewed X inactivation. Therefore IP, although rare, may serve as a prototypical example of the clinical presentation of X-linked dominant disorders.
