AB We report on four patients with acquired ichthyosis-like skin lesions
seen in our out-patients' clinic in the last 6 years. Emphasis is placed
on the case of a 25-year-old patient who suffered from mycosis fungoides
with the clinical features of an acquired ichthyosis-like condition.
Three further observations illustrate the broad clinical spectrum of
acquired ichthyosis-like dermatoses. In these patients renal
insufficiency, HIV infection or an extreme diet were the cause of the
skin lesions. Our observations emphasise that an acquired
ichthyosis-like condition should be regarded as a challenge to make a
definite diagnosis. Guidelines for a step-by-step diagnostic procedure
are proposed.
