• Hearing Impairment

  Sensorineural deafness or severe hearing impairment is often congenital. Corneal epithelium may be affected, manifesting as keratitis and photophobia. KID/HID syndrome is an autosomal dominant trait but most cases are sporadic. [genome.jp]

  Nearly all cases have skin involvement, which includes red, rough, thickened plaques that are sometimes scaling, as well as sensorineural deafness or severe hearing impairment. [rarediseases.org]

  Congenital sensorineural hearing loss is generally severe and bilateral. The noncutaneous features include bilateral neurosensory hearing impairment, which starts at birth; vascularizing keratitis often develops later in the course. [dermatologyadvisor.com]

  These include vascularizing keratitis, opacification of cornea, dry eyes, blepharitis, and conjunctivitis. [journals.lww.com]

  Eye lesions are progressive and may include blepharitis, keratoconjunctivitis sicca, corneal epithelial defects, scarring, and neovascularization, causing progressive decline of visual acuity and eventually leading to blindness (vascularizing keratitis [dermatologyadvisor.com]

• Hyperkeratosis

  Typical skin changes gradually develop during infancy and include linear and spiny hyperkeratosis of the flexures, and ichthyosis-hystrix-like scaling on the limbs [4]. Scattered follicular hyperkeratosis appears on the trunk. [escholarship.org]

  Keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness (KID) syndrome is a rare ectodermal dysplasia characterized by sensorineural hearing loss, photophobia and corneal vascularization, hyperkeratosis of the palms and soles, erythrokeratoderma, follicular hyperkeratosis, and [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  All the nails were yellowish and thickened with subungual hyperkeratosis. The patient had complete sensorineural deafness that was congenital, which eventually lead to mutism. Mucous membranes and dentition were normal. [journals.lww.com]

  Systemic retinoids reduce the hyperkeratosis but do not affect the underlying disease mechanism. They may, however, be a good choice to prevent skin cancer. [dermatologyadvisor.com]

  Alopecia may be present at birth. [dermatologyadvisor.com]

  Other features include palmoplantar hyperkeratosis, nail dystrophy, and alopecia (ranging from sparse hair to alopecia totalis) [6]. About half of the patients have sparse scalp hair and sparse or often absent eyebrows and eyelashes [7]. [escholarship.org]

Signs and symptoms such as confusion, seizures and loss of consciousness require emergency treatment. Early diagnosis and treatment of Reye's syndrome can save a child's life. [mayoclinic.org]

Treatment Treatment Options: The use of ocular lubricating preparation may supply significant relief from symptoms but scarring may eventually necessitate penetrating keratoplasty. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

DISCUSSION Due to its congenital character, treatment of KID syndrome is very difficult and only supportive. Unfortunately, due to it’s severity, skin changes are very resistant to the topical treatment with keratolytic preparations. [odermatol.com]
