Case report: We report an infant who presented with clinical manifestations of incontinentia pigmenti (IP). Despite experiencing seizures in the early neonatal period, the patient had normal growth and development until recently. However, follow-up magnetic resonance imaging revealed sequential changes in white matter lesions.
Discussion: The pathogenesis of neurological involvement in IP has not been clearly elucidated and appears to be associated with various mechanisms, including developmental, destructive, and vascular processes. We have attempted to explain the pathogenesis of IP through these changes.
