A patient with ichthyosis, keratitis, deafness and recalcitrant cutaneous bacterial and fungal infections previously described as having hereditary hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia was described. Similarly affected patients described in the literature had the following features in common: a distinctive ichythosis characterized by a fine dry scale, follicular hyperkeratotic spines and a reticulated pattern of hyperkeratosis on the palms and soles; a vascularizing keratitis that resulted in notable visual impairment; and neurosensory deafness. Half of the affected patients also displayed frequent, severe cutaneous infections. The name the KID syndrome was suggested to emphasize the characteristic features of the syndrome: keratitis, ichthyosis and deafness.
