‘When a mother flees from her newborn’ – comparing Harlequin Ichthyosis cases in Nigeria and the United Kingdom.

As it does every year, Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases partnered with Findacure in its Student Voice essay contest. The overall winner will be published in the journal on Rare Disease Day, and we are proud to present the other finalists here. For this entry, undergraduate and masters students from around the world were asked to compare and contrast rare disease healthcare provision of two countries of their choice. In this blog, Naomi Morka compares pre-natal diagnosis and management of harlequin ichthyosis between a developed and a developing nation.
