Genodermatoses are hereditary skin disorders or anomalies. The authors had investigated the frequency of genes, species and clinical forms of hereditary dermatoses in Vojvodina including age and sex distribution. The experimental group was selected by random sampling of the diseased of genodermatosis and/or genetic diseases at the Clinic of Dermatology and Venereology and Institute for Children and Adolescents in Novi Sad. The experimental group included 152 cases, and that made simultaneously the experimental and positive control group in relation to the diseased population with genodermatoses and/or genetic diseases in Vojvodina. In the investigation we applied the following methods: family history taking including genealogy; dermatoglyphic examination; screening tests in medical genetics; cytogenetic analysis of patient's karyotype; histopathological analysis of the material obtained by skin biopsy; dermatovenereological, genetic and dysmorphologic examination of skin diseases by analysis of dysmorphologic signs on the skin using a special computer program--POSSUM (Pictures of Standard Syndromes and Undiagnosed Malformations). Application of non-parametric statistics and Log-linear analysis, revealed that there is no statistically significant difference between the experimental group and the group with genetic diseases in population of Vojvodina. The obtained incidence of genodermatoses and/or genetic diseases was computed by "Hardy-Weinberg's principle". These methods of genetic population investigations give possibilities for valid incidence estimation of the diseases and frequency of the gen allele's for genodermatoses and/or genetic disorders and syndromes in defined population. Our results of investigation of the incidence genodermatoses in our's population showed significantly increased values in relation to literature data for the same hereditary disorders.
