Pretibial dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa*
Epidermolysis bullosa is a group of mechano-bullous genetic disorders caused by mutations in the genes encoding structural proteins of the skin. Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene encoding collagen VII, the main constituent of anchoring fibrils. In this group, there are autosomal dominant and recessive inheritances. The pre-tibial form is characterized by...
متن کاملJunctional and Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa
Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a congenital genodermatosis, which affects mainly skin and occasionally other organs [1]. Lifelong blistering and erosion of the skin and mucous membrane, caused by mechanical trauma, threaten EB patients [1]. The most common cause of death is metastasizing squamous cell carcinoma [2]. EB is subdivided into mainly three categories by the location of tissue separati...
متن کاملDystrophic epidermolysis bullosa: a review
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is a rare inherited blistering disorder caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene encoding type VII collagen. The deficiency and/or dysfunction of type VII collagen leads to subepidermal blistering immediately below the lamina densa, resulting in mucocutaneous fragility and disease complications such as intractable ulcers, extensive scarring, malnutrition, and mali...
متن کاملThree Brothers with Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa
Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a group of heritable mechano-bullous skin diseases classified into three major categories on the basis of the level of tissue separation within the dermal-epidermal basement membrane zone. In the most severe, dystrophic (scarring) forms of EB, blisters form below the cutaneous basement membrane at the level of the anchoring fibrils, which are composed of type VII c...
متن کاملDilated cardiomyopathy in dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.
BACKGROUND Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) is an uncommon genetic disorder of the skin and mucosae. In 1996, we reported the occurrence of lethal dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in two affected children. METHODS In the past seven years we have routinely screened patients with severe DEB who have been under the care of this hospital by yearly clinical review, echocardiography, and quantifi...
