Mental deficiency is usually associated. The syndrome is divided into two forms: Incontinentia pigmenti type I and type II which lethal in males. Major Features Head and neck: Microcephaly. Eyes: Ocular abnormalities are present in about one-third of all cases. They include strabismus, cataracts, optic atrophy, retrolental fibroplasia, pseudoglioma, retinal detachment, myopia, blue sclerae, nystagmus, microphthalmos, retinal telangiectasia, ophthalmia, and pigmentation disorders of the conjunctiva, iris, retina, and oculomotor paralysis. Thorax: Supernumerary ribs, unilateral breast aplasia, and supernumerary nipples.
Extractions: The skin abnormalities of IP usually disappear by adolescence or adulthood without treatment. Diminished vision may be treated with corrective lenses, medication, or, in severe cases, surgery. A specialist may treat dental problems. Neurological symptoms such as seizures, muscle spasms, or mild paralysis may be controlled with medication and/or medical devices and with the advice of a neurologist. What is the prognosis?

A complex congenital disturbance that occurs almost exclusively in newborn girls (95 %), characterized by bizarre, widespread pigmented macules of unusual shapes; and defects of teeth, eyes, nails, central nervous system and hair. Long lists of other symptoms includes retarded growth and mental retardation. Inheritance is X-linked dominant. It is usually lethal in males, who are probably the result of spontaneous mutations.

Extractions: A genetic disease with blisters that develop soon after birth on the trunk and limbs, then heal, but leave dark (hyperpigmented) streaks and marble-like whorls on the skin. (the name came from the erroneous idea that the skin cells were incontinent of pigment and could not contain it normally.) other key features of ip include dental and nail abnormalities, bald patches, and (in about 1/3rd of cases) mental retardation. Ip is an x-linked dominant with male lethality. The ip gene is in band q28 on the x chromosome. Mothers with ip have an equal chance of having a normal or ip daughter or a normal son. The ip sons die before birth. Ip is also known as bloch-sulzberger syndrome.

Extractions: (advertisement) Synonyms, Key Words, and Related Terms: IP, Bloch-Sulzberger syndrome, Bloch-Siemens syndrome, familial incontinentia pigmenti, IP2 Background: Incontinentia pigmenti (IP), sometimes termed Bloch-Sulzberger syndrome, is an X-linked dominant single-gene disorder with neurologic, ophthalmologic, and dental involvement, as well as cutaneous findings. In 1906, Garrod probably reported the first case of IP and described it as a peculiar pigmentation of the skin in an infant. Subsequently, Bloch and Sulzberger further defined the condition as a clinical syndrome with a constellation of unique features, which include typical cutaneous lesions. Since then, a large number of small series and individual case reports have been published. Pathophysiology: IP is a disorder characterized by abnormalities of the tissues and organs derived from the ectoderm and neuroectoderm. The locus for IP is genetically linked to the factor VIII gene on chromosome band Xq28. Recently, Aradhya et al demonstrated that mutations in NEMO/IKK g , which encodes a critical component of the nuclear factor- k B (NF- k B) signaling pathway, are responsible for IP (Aradhya, 2001). Virtually all mutations eliminate the production of NF-

The disease is characterized by swirled patterns of hyperpigmentation which is also evident in biopsies of the streaks that show pigment within dermal macrophages ('incontinent pigment'). Associated findings include seizures, mental retardation, strabismus, cataracts, and delayed or impaired dentition. The pigmentary lesions disappear with aging owing to a selection against cells in which the mutation-bearing X chromosome is active.
