Collodion baby is a rare genodermatosis.
Majority of these babies do not recieve treatment and called demons or devils.
The neonate is born, encased completely in a yellowish, taut, glistening, parchment-like membrane that restricts its movements minimally. The skin markings are obliterated and mild ectropion(eye), eclabion(mouth), and flattened pinnae are usual. Nasal obstruction will restrict breathing. The collodion membrane starts drying early and cracks / sheds completely within two weeks of life, exposing the infant to the risk of hypothermia, skin and lung infections, septicemia, and electrolyte imbalance, with a propensity for renal and neurological damage.
