Netherton's Syndrome And Ichthyosis Linearis Circumflexa

In 1970, a report discussed a 22-year-old woman with ichthyosis serpentina, bamboo hair, and periodic hair loss, alongside conditions like atopic eczema and asthma, suggesting a variant of ichthyosis associated with trichorrhexis invaginata. A 2-year-old sister also showed broken hair shafts. The presence of atopy varied among cases, indicating it was not essential to the syndrome.
