Collodion baby (CB) is a rare dermatological condition worldwide of 1: 300.000 birth. A Collodion baby is a newborn whose entire body is covered with an adherent, supple, parchment-like membrane. Collodion baby in a manifestation of various hereditary conditions, including Harlequin orchestras’ (HI), lamelar orchestras’ (LI), non-bullous congenital ichtyosiform erythroderma (NBCIE), trichothiodystrophy metabolic disease, and endocrine disease. We report two collodion babies cases with peeling skin, passive movement, and poor feeding. Both cases were hospitalized in the humidity-controlled incubator. Water and topical treatment were used for daily bathing to prevent infection.

Collodion baby syndrome is a rare congenital autosomal recessive type of ichthyosis. It is a skin disorder characterised by parchment-like taut membrane which is present during birth. Collodion syndrome responds best to medical and nursing measures and may improve or resolve with the treatment of underlying condition. The nurse needs to provide emotional support to the family and impart knowledge to the care provider regarding the treatment choices and resources available. The disease process, common investigations and nursing management of collodion baby are explicated in this article. A case history is briefed with the specific nursing care provided by the community health nurse at the primary healthcare setting.

Objective: Ichthyosis is a disorder of cornification, which can be acquired or inherited, and encompasses various forms of generalized scaling and superficial roughness of the skin secondary to impaired skin barrier. It can be often associated with systemic manifestations. There is a paucity of Indian studies assessing the clinical and demographic profile of children with inherited ichthyosis. Hence, we conducted this study with the primary objective of assessing the clinical and epidemiological profile of children with congenital ichthyosis (CI). Materials and Methods: The study was conducted over 1 year. All children aged up to 18 years of age, with the clinical diagnosis of CI, were evaluated for epidemiological profile and clinical features. Results: A total of 32 children with CI presented with a mean age of 6 ± 4.81 years. The most common phenotype was ichthyosis vulgaris, seen in 13 (40.6%) children, while X-linked recessive ichthyosis was present in 6 (18.75%) children. Epidermolytic ichthyosis (EI) was also seen in 6 (18.75%) children, out of which 5 were diagnosed with generalized EI and 1 was diagnosed with superficial EI. Lamellar ichthyosis was seen in 4 (12.5%) children. Sjogren–Larsson syndrome (SLS), harlequin ichthyosis, and Netherton syndrome were present in 1 (3.1%) case each. Various extracutaneous abnormalities detected were ectropion (9.3%), lagophthalmos (3.1%), and refractive error with stye (3.1%) on ophthalmological evaluation, gross development delay (8.75%), and neurological involvement in the form of spastic quadriplegia (one patient with SLS). Conclusions: CI comprises various skin diseases and can range from mild to very severe presentation with systemic involvement. Identification of the phenotypic expression of ichthyosis is a prerequisite for making prognostic predictions, therapeutic decisions, and offering genetic counseling.
