ABSTRACT
Incontinentia pigmenti (IP) is an uncommon genodermatosis that occurs mostly in female infants, but is rarely found in male infants. Male patients with incontinentia pigmenti are usually more severely affected than their female counterparts. IP is characterized by ectodermal, mesodermal, neurological, ocular, and dental manifestations. Herein, we report a case of IP in a male infant who presented with a typical course of skin manifestation, dental defects, and recurrent partial seizures. However, he did not show any signs or symptoms for ocular or cardiovascular anomalies.
