Key Clinical Message Pallister–Killian syndrome ( PKS ) is a rare, sporadic, multisystem developmental disorder characterized by craniofacial dysmorphic features. We report a case of a two‐year‐old boy with PKS to highlight the cutaneous findings and emphasize the importance of diagnostic skin biopsies in patients with cutaneous pigmentation changes and distinctive facial features.
