• Coloboma, congenital heart disease, ichthyosiform dermatosis, intellectual disability, conductive hearing loss, and epilepsy (CHIME) syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive neuroectodermal disorder caused by PIGL gene mutations. There is emerging literature to support the use of interleukin-17 (IL-17) antagonists in the treatment of certain ichthyosiform dermatoses. Here, we report a case of severe ichthyosiform dermatosis in a child with CHIME syndrome who was recalcitrant to multiple topical medications and dupilumab. This is the first reported case of successful treatment of congenital ichthyosiform dermatosis in a CHIME syndrome patient with ixekizumab, an IL-17A antagonist.
