    AbstractWe report a case of a male collodion baby, born at term of a consanguineous couple of Afghan origin. The new-born baby displayed a pseudo-dysmorphic syndrome predominant of the face, with a marked ectropion of the upper and lower eye-lids and chemosis, without corneal involvement. The condition improved with time but complete regression was not obtained. Collodion baby syndrome is a pathologic skin condition observable during the neonatal period. Long term evolution is towards ichthyosis in 90% of cases, and resolution in 10%.
