Neurocutaneous Syndromes in Children ( NCS )

Learning Objectives

1. Define the term – “ Neurocutaneus Syndromes”

2. List three common types in NCS

3. Explain the reason of association between Skin and CNS

disorders

4. Recognize the cutaneous lesions; Explain or Correlate their

presence with the neurological disorders and Diagnose the

specific NCSyndrome

5. Tell the mode of genetic inheritance of the NCS

6. Enumerate salient clinical features ( Signs & Symptoms ) of

the most common NCS

7. List a few common complications of these conditions

8. Choose appropriate investigative work up

9. Outline briefly the management plan of the common NCS

Central Nervous System Disorders

with concurrent lesions in the

Skin, Eye,

and possibly

other Visceral Organs

Neurocutaneous syndromes

Refer to a heterogenous group of

31 mar 16

• The NeuroCutaneous ( Skin & CNS

manifestations are related to the

“ COMMON ECTODERMAL ORIGIN ” of

these organs

• Heredofamilial Disorder

• Defective differentiation of primitive

ectoderm

Remember the Following 3 Basic POINTS

31 mar 16

Skin : Earliest symptom

Skin lesions may follow Blaschko lines

and their melanoblasts start to

transform into melanocytes after birth

3 or 4 stages :- Vesicular, Verrucous,

Hyperpigmented, and sometimes

Hypopigmented stagemonths and

disappear within 6 months after birth.

(95%)due to its fatality in male in

contour (circular or conical shape), and hypodontia

hypopigmentation in the retina, microphthalmia,

lenticular hemorrhage, retrolental fibroplasia, cataract,

and atrophy of the optic nerve

CNS: seizure, microcephaly, mental retardation, and

spastic Paralysis
