Abstract
Congenital hemi dysplasia with ichthyosiform erythroderma and limb defects also known as CHILD syndrome is a genetic disorder with onset at birth seen almost exclusively in females. CHILD syndrome is a hereditary disorder transmitted as an X-linked dominant trait. The symptoms would appear at birth or shortly after birth. The combination of physical symptoms on the child would suggest they have CHILD syndrome. There is currently no treatment for CHILD syndrome so any treatment would target the symptoms currently present on Skin. Patients with left-sided involvement generally have more severe internal abnormalities, especially in regard to cardiac anomalies, and therefore have a worse prognosis. Early death in persons with CHILD syndrome is most commonly due to cardiovascular malformations. However, central nervous system, skeletal, kidney, lung, and other visceral defects can contribute to significant morbidity.
