It is a great pleasure for me to see this work in print. As
outlined by Dr. Traupe, at least 20 different types of ichthyosis
have been identified to date. This book will effectively help to
establish a correct diagnosis, as a basis for genetic counseling.
Dr. Traupe proposes a new classification of the ichthyoses, based
on reason able clinical criteria. He lets the reader share in his
enormous knowledge and safely guides him through the difficult
field of nomenclature. He describes the particular nature of these
scaling disorders in a manner as simple as possible. During the
last few years, research on ichthyosis has become a fascinating
scientific challenge due to the introduction of novel investigative
approaches. The main advantage of this book lies in the fact that
the author successfully combines recent achievements made in lipid
analysis, enzymology, electron microscopy, and molecular genetics.
Heiko Traupe began his career in dermatology 11 years ago, as a
resident in the Department of Dermatology in Munster. As we were
both interested in the genetic aspects of skin diseases, this was
the starting point of a most fruitful collaboration, which is still
continuing. During our common work in Munster, Dr. Traupe was able,
thanks to his unceasing clinical curiosity, to describe many novel
aspects within the field of ichthyosis, and I took pride in
coauthoring papers on new items such as cryptorchidism as a fea
ture associated with X-linked recessive ichthyosis, autosomal
dominant lamellar ichthyosis, and alopecia ichthyotica."
