Özet
Incontinentia pigmenti is a rare, X-linked dominant multisystem genodermatosis affecting ectodermal and mesodermal tissues. After the skin, the central nervous system is the second-most affected system. We report a neonate with incontinentia pigmenti and encephalocele, as a feature of the central nervous system involvement, to stress this uncommon association. © 2009 Sage Publications.
