Item Congenital poikiloderma with unusual hypopigmentation and acral blistering at birth(Elsevier, 1999) Ogunbiyi, A. O.; Ogunbiyi, J. O.; Baiyeroju-Agbeja, A. M.Congenital poikiloderma is an uncommon hereditary disorder. It has been reported in association with various synuromes. No case has previously been reported from this environment. We report a case of congenital poikiloderma in a two and a half year old female Nigerian associated with unusual generalised hypopigmentation and acral blisters at birth. The child subsequently developed macular hyperpigmentation on an erythematous background and atrophy of the skin. Although he had some features which were suggestive of Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS), the presence of nypopigmentation at birth along with acral blistering, was noted to be peculiar to this child. We, therefore, feel that this case presents a distinct variant of congenital poikiloderma that has not been described previously.Item Focal dermal hypoplasia: a case report and review of literature(2003-12) Ogunbiyi, A. O.; Adewole, I. O.; Ogunleye, O.; Ogunbiyi, J. O.; Ogunseinde, O. O.; Baiyeroju-Agbeja, A.A 14 year old girl was seen in the clinic with a huge vulvar wart, and warts on both tonsils. She also had poikiloderma. She had bony abnormalities, which included lobster claw abnormality of the right foot, a right cervical rib, and the right clavicle was lower than the left. There were fine parallel vertical radio-opaque lines in the distal femoral tibial metaphyses bilaterally (osteopathla striata). A diagnosis of Focal dermal hypoplasia was made. The huge vulvar wart and the warts on the tonsils were excised. She recovered promptly and she was discharged home.
