We report 4 cases of Harlequin ichthyosis, which is a rare and severe congenital ichthyosis involving the face. Facial appearance consists in severe ectropion, conjonctival edema, eclabium, flattened ears, broadened nose and large, thick, plate-like skin scales. Recent advances in neonatal care have been made, such as retinoid therapy, and have led to an increased survival rate. Early surgical correction of ectropion may be required because of ocular complications.
