Bloch-Sulzberger syndrome in clinical practice

https://doi.org/10.21508/1027-4065-2025-0-5-151-156

Abstract

Skin lesions in newborns and infants are characterized by a significant diversity, due to which their diagnosis is quite complex and requires knowledge of the clinical picture of a large range of both common and rare dermatoses. The article describes a clinical case of a rare Bloch-Sulzberger syndrome linked to the X-chromosome.
