Abstract

Kindler syndrome (KS) is a rare autosomal recessive skin condition. The FERMT1 gene mutates and causes symptoms such as blistering and epidermal atrophy, as well as an increased risk of cancer and poor wound healing. A male in his 20s sought treatment for his hyper-hypopigmentation over the body with poikiloderma of the face with thin wrinkled cigarette paper skin in association with photosensitivity. He gave a history of developing blisters all over the body during his childhood, which formed raw areas and eventually healed forming atrophic scars. The objective is to assess the correlation of clinical findings with dermoscopy in a case of KS. KS is a rare disorder with poikiloderma, photosensitivity, and acral bullae in infancy as predominant features. Dermoscopy proves to be a useful tool in the diagnosis of this rare disorder as it helps in the identification of poikiloderma, adermatoglyphia, and cigarette paper scarring.
