Ichthyosis is a rare disorder first described in 1750 by Reverend Oliver Hart in United States. Authors present a case of male fetus with external aspect of extreme genodermatosis, compatible with severe congenital ichthyosis, known as "Harlequin fetus". We performed a clinical and anatomical-pathologic characterization of disease, and it is offered a review on this rare genodermatosis with a heritance autosomal recessive pattern and for which there is not successful treatment, thus, it is lethal disease. Necropsy finding are offered as well as case photos.
