Abstract
Keratosis Follicularis Spinulosa Decalvans (KFSD) is an X-linked genodermatosis characterized by scarring alopecia and follicular hyperkeratosis. This condition mainly affects males with females being carriers and will have milder symptoms. We present a family of two siblings of KFSD, boy had nine years and girl had five years old. This genodermatosis often starts at infancy or early childhood. Keratosis pilaris atrophicans (KPA) is the umbrella term for a group of three rare and distinct clinical entities representing the scarring types of keratosis pilaris.
