Abstract
Congenital ichthyoses (CI) comprise a heterogeneous group of monogenic genetic skin diseases characterized by diffuse scaling, often associated with skin inflammation. Diagnosis of the individual form of ichthyosis is complex and is guided by clinical expertise. CI usually has a major impact on quality of life (QOL) and thus requires lifelong treatment. To date, there are no curative therapies, although various symptomatic treatment options exist. The present protocol for the management of CI has been drawn up in accordance with the recommendations published in 2012 by the French National Authority for Health, based on a literature review, with the help and validation of members of the French network for rare skin diseases (FIMARAD). It provides a summary of evidence and expert-based recommendations and is intended to help clinicians with the management of these rare and often complex diseases.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to describe ocular surface and anterior eye segment findings in various types of ichthyoses. METHODS This was a single-center prospective observational study. The study group consisted of five patients (P1-P5) aged 13-66 years. Multimodal imaging was performed, including slit-lamp examinations, swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT), and in vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM). RESULTS All patients were diagnosed with moderate-to-severe dry eye disease (DED). The corneas showed a significant pattern of irregularity, with a significant difference between the corneal thickness at the apex (CAT) and the corneal thinnest thickness (CTT), exceeding 375 µm. Three patients were diagnosed with ectasia patterns based on SS-OCT. All patients showed abnormalities in at least one Fourier index parameter for at least one eye at 3 or 6 mm in the keratometric, anterior, or posterior analyses. IVCM examinations revealed changes in all corneal layers. CONCLUSIONS By combining the results of multimodal imaging, we were able to detect preclinical abnormalities, distinguish characteristic changes common to ichthyosis, and reveal the depth and characteristics of corneal abnormalities. Therefore, patients with ichthyosis should be examined for DED and ectatic disorders early in clinical practice.

Abstract
The ichthyoses are a large, heterogeneous group of skin cornification disorders. They can be inherited or acquired, and result in defective keratinocyte differentiation and abnormal epidermal barrier formation. The resultant skin barrier dysfunction leads to increased transepidermal water loss and inflammation. Disordered cornification is clinically characterized by skin scaling with various degrees of thickening, desquamation (peeling) and erythema (redness). Regardless of the type of ichthyosis, many patients suffer from itching, recurrent infections, sweating impairment (hypohidrosis) with heat intolerance, and diverse ocular, hearing and nutritional complications that should be monitored periodically. The characteristic clinical features are considered to be a homeostatic attempt to repair the skin barrier, but heterogeneous clinical presentation and imperfect phenotype-genotype correlation hinder diagnosis. An accurate molecular diagnosis is, however, crucial for predicting prognosis and providing appropriate genetic counselling. Most ichthyoses severely affect patient quality of life and, in severe forms, may cause considerable disability and even death. So far, treatment provides only symptomatic relief. It is lifelong, expensive, time-consuming, and often provides disappointing results. A better understanding of the molecular mechanisms that underlie these conditions is essential for designing pathogenesis-driven and patient-tailored innovative therapeutic solutions.

Abstract
The term 'inherited ichthyosis' refers to a heterogeneous group of mendelian disorders of cornification that involve the integument with varying degrees of scaling. The management of ichthyosis poses a challenge for most physicians. Treatment options proposed in the literature include moisturizers, topical keratolytics, topical and systemic vitamin D analogues, and topical and systemic retinoids; however, some of these modalities are less reliable than others. Despite the therapeutic impasse imposed by the options above, the emergence of pathogenesis-based treatments along with novel gene therapies appear promising and hold the potential to halt or even revert disorders that arise from single genetic mutations, although research is still quite lacking in this domain. Hence, this review aims to highlight the various treatment modalities available for the management of the cutaneous manifestations of non-syndromic inherited ichthyosis, with an added emphasis on pathogenesis-targeted therapies.

Abstract
Keratinization means cytodifferentiation of keratinocytes turning into corneocytes in the stratum corneum. Disorders of keratinization (hyperkeratosis, parakeratosis and dyskeratosis) are causing many dermatological diseases, including various types of ichthyoses, pachyonychia congenita, pityriasis rubra pilaris, all subtypes of psoriasis, pityriasis lichenoides, dyskeratosis congenita, leukoplakia and keratosis follicularis, which apart from skin lesions may affect the eye’s adnexae causing ectropion, entropion, blepharitis, madarosis, and trichiasis, the ocular surface causing keratitis, conjunctivitis, corneal ulceration and episcleritis, which in turn cause uveitis and various fundoscopic changes (proliferative retinopathy, retinal vasculopathy, macular oedema and birdshot chorioretinopathy). Knowledge of ocular symtoms associated with pathological keratinization is crucial, preventing sight-threatening complications such as corneal perforation, lagophthalmus, phthisis bulbi, retinal neovascularization, retinal vasculopathy and optic nerve atrophy. This review encourages dermatologists to monitor patients for ocular symptoms and encourage ophthalmologists to monitor patients for dermatological symptoms.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the presence of pre-Descemet corneal dystrophy (PDCD) in association with X-linked ichthyosis (XLI) in an 11-year-old boy using multimodal imaging and genetic analysis. METHODS Corneal opacities were examined and imaged with slit-lamp biomicroscopy, anterior segment optical coherence tomography, noncontact specular microscopy, and in vivo confocal microscopy. Cytogenomic array analysis was performed using genomic DNA isolated from the patient. RESULTS Corneal opacities characteristic of PDCD located in the posterior corneal stroma just anterior to Descemet membrane were identified by slit-lamp biomicroscopy. A pre-Descemet hyper-reflective line, consistent with these opacities, was seen with anterior segment optical coherence tomography. Scheimpflug tomography revealed a bimodal peak light scattering. In vivo confocal microscopy findings were unremarkable. Copy number analysis identified a 4389 kbp hemizygous deletion on the X chromosome (chr. X: 6,540,898-8,167,604), resulting in the deletion of 4 genes, including the known locus of XLI, the STS gene. CONCLUSIONS This report demonstrates that PDCD-associated XLI may present in children and that the diagnosis may be confirmed through multimodal imaging in conjunction with genetic analysis.

Abstract
Skin and eyes share a common embryological origin from the embryonic surface ectoderm. Ocular manifestations in dermatological diseases are common and have diagnostic value. At present, there are a limited number of comprehensive reviews emphasizing the ocular manifestations of dermatological diseases. More than 40 published articles about ocular findings in dermatology were reviewed. The search included Pubmed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane databases from 2014 to 2019. This review was divided into three parts including: I. infectious and inflammatory disorders; II. genodermatoses; III. connective tissue, autoimmune, neoplasms, and drug-related disorders. We excluded metabolic, endocrine, and nutrition-related dermatological diseases. In this part, we summarized the most common and important ocular findings in dermatology-related genetic disorders with appropriate referral recommendations to ophthalmology.

Abstract
These guidelines for the management of congenital ichthyoses have been developed by a multidisciplinary group of European experts following a systematic review of the current literature, an expert conference held in Toulouse in 2016, and a consensus on the discussions. These guidelines summarize evidence and expert-based recommendations and intend to help clinicians with the management of these rare and often complex diseases. These guidelines comprise two sections. This is part two, covering the management of complications and the particularities of some forms of congenital ichthyosis.
