Ichthyosis Follicularis Alopecia and Photophobia Syndrome: Transient Improvement with Oral Isotretinoin

The document described a case of an 18-month-old male with Ichthyosis Follicularis Alopecia Photophobia (IFAP) syndrome, a rare genetic disorder. The child exhibited symptoms including dry skin, congenital atrichia, developmental delays, seizures, and photophobia. Despite various treatments, only oral isotretinoin showed transient improvement in the skin condition, with no effect on photophobia or developmental delays. The case highlighted the challenges in managing IFAP syndrome and the need for further research and documentation to develop effective treatments.
