Article Synopsis
  • Netherton syndrome (NS) is a rare genetic skin condition caused by changes in the SPINK5 gene, characterized by symptoms like atopic diathesis, ichthyosis linearis circumflexa, and hair shaft abnormalities.
  • Diagnosing NS can be tricky due to symptoms that overlap with other skin disorders, making tools like trichoscopy important for identifying specific hair shaft characteristics.
  • Treatment options range from topical therapies to systemic treatments such as biologics, with ongoing research into novel therapies including gene therapy and various drug inhibitors.
