Abstract

We report a unique case of self-healing collodion baby (CB) that was successfully managed despite the risk of potentially serious complications. Self-healing CB is a rare and distinct outcome of collodion phenotype occurring in approximately 10% of the cases. The outcome depends on the initial assessment and adequate multidisciplinary approach.
