Disease Ichthyosis, congenital, autosomal recessive 4A (ARCI4A) [MIM:601277]: A form of autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis, a disorder of keratinization with abnormal differentiation and desquamation of the epidermis, resulting in abnormal skin scaling over the whole body. The main skin phenotypes are lamellar ichthyosis (LI) and non-bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma (NCIE), although phenotypic overlap within the same patient or among patients from the same family can occur. Lamellar ichthyosis is a condition often associated with an embedment in a collodion-like membrane at birth; skin scales later develop, covering the entire body surface. Non-bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma characterized by fine whitish scaling on an erythrodermal background; larger brownish scales are present on the buttocks, neck and legs. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12915478, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17508018, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18284401, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19262603, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22257947}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Disease Ichthyosis, congenital, autosomal recessive 4B (ARCI4B) [MIM:242500]: A rare, very severe form of congenital ichthyosis, in which the neonate is born with a thick covering of armor-like scales. The skin dries out to form hard diamond-shaped plaques separated by fissures, resembling 'armor plating'. The normal facial features are severely affected, with distortion of the lips (eclabion), eyelids (ectropion), ears, and nostrils. Affected babies are often born prematurely and rarely survive the perinatal period. Babies who survive into infancy and beyond develop skin changes resembling severe non-bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15756637, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16675967, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16902423}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
