Familial recurrence of incontinentia pigmenti due to de novo pathogenic variants in the IKBKG gene.

Abstract excerpt

Incontinentia pigmenti (IP, Bloch-Sulzberger syndrome) is a multisystem disorder which associates specific skin lesions that evolves in four stages, and occasionally, central nervous system, eye, hair, and teeth involvement. Familial (35%) and sporadic (65%) cases are caused by pathogenic variants in the IKBKG gene. Here we report an unusual family, where, in two half-sisters affected by typical IP, molecular...
