Cutis tricolor was first described in a 17-year-old male patient by Happle et al. as a rare coexistence of circumscribed hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation close to each other on a background of normally pigmented skin. Cutis tricolor has been reported as an isolated cutaneous finding or in various associations. To the best of our knowledge, cutis tricolor in association with teratoma and holoprosencephaly has not been reported in the literature. Herein, we report a male patient who presented with a teratoma and a combination of whorl-like hypopigmentation together with hyperpigmented patches adjacent to each other on intermediately pigmented skin. This case report supports the view that cutis tricolor may be a marker of an underlying neurological abnormality.

Keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness (KID) syndrome is a rare genodermatosis causing ichthyosis-like skin lesions, keratitis, and deafness. Herein, we report a patient with this rare syndrome in association with pityriasis lichenoides chronica, which was succesfully treated with narrow-band ultraviolet B phototherapy despite our concerns regarding the increased risk of squamous cell carcinoma, hyperpyrexia, and keratitis.
