5% Simvastatin Ointment as Treatment for Congenital Hemidysplasia with Ichthyosiform Erythroderma and Limb Defects (CHILD) Syndrome in a 4-year-old Female: A Case Report.
A 4-year-old female with Congenital Hemidysplasia with Ichthyosiform erythroderma and Limb Defects (CHILD) syndrome, with a pathogenic variant of the NSDHL gene, c.130G>A (p.Gly44Ser), and unilateral right-sided erythematous verrucous plaques with scaling and ipsilateral limb defects, was started on 5% simvastatin ointment. It was applied twice daily for four months, with improvement already seen starting week 2. Monotherapy with 5% simvastatin ointment was able to decrease the thickness of the verrucous plaques seen in our patient, highlighting that the accumulation of toxic metabolites may play a more crucial role in its disease pathogenesis.
