Abstract

ABSTRACT Family Medicine is a primary care service where undifferentiated patients apply and low prevalence medicine service is provided. Ichthyosis vulgaris is the most common type of ichthyosis, accounting for more than 95% of all ichthyosis cases. The prevalence of this inherited disease, which is caused by a mutation in the filagrin (FLG) gene, is between 1/250 and 1/100. Xerosis, keratosis plaris, palmar hyperlinerity are seen in the patients. Ankyloglossia, on the other hand, is a congenital anomaly that limits the normal movements of the tongue, and its incidence in society varies between 4% and 10.7%. In this case report, for the first time in the literature, the association of ankyloglossia was reported in a patient with ichthyosis. With this case, we tried to draw attention to the importance of undifferentiated case and low prevalence medicine in Family Medicine.
