Abstract

X‑linked ichthyosis (XLI) is an X‑linked recessive skin disorder generally restricted to males, which arises from mutations in the steroid sulfatase (STS) gene located on Xp22.3. Crigler‑Najjar syndrome (CN‑I) is a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by the homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in the UPD‑glucuronosyltransferase 1 family, polypeptide A1 (UGT1A1) gene on chromosome 2q37. A male patient was referred to the Department of Medical Genetics with of severe icterus and ichthyosis. The patient and his family members underwent genetic tests related to XLI and CN‑I. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction on genomic DNA was performed to determine the gene copy number, while single nucleotide polymorphism array analysis was conducted to identify deletion mutations. Family pedigree analysis showed that the patient and his two cousins were all affected by ichthyosis, which was in accordance with the inheritance pattern of an X‑linked recessive disease. In addition, the patient's serum bilirubin concentration (>340 mmol/l) was markedly greater than the normal level. The patient presented with kernicterus and phenobarbital treatment was ineffective. The clinical diagnosis of XLI was confirmed molecularly by laboratory evidence of a maternal 1.61 M deletion (including the STS gene) on ChrXp22.31. Coincidentally, the male patient was also confirmed to carry a rare maternal inherited microdeletion (374 Kb) comprising the entire UGT1A1 gene combined with a paternal UGT1A1 mutation (c.1253delT), a causative event of CN‑I. To the best of our knowledge, this study reported for the first time the comorbidity of XLI and CN‑I in a male patient. The results suggested that co‑occurrence of these two recessive diseases in a patient may be incidental.
