RDEB is an autosomal recessive inherited condition. This means both parents are carriers, yet they are unaffected. When each parent has a copy of the altered gene, there is a 1 in 4 chance or 25% that the child will be affected. 1, record 1, English, - recessive%20dystrophic%20epidermolysis%20bullosa

Although in some cases this form of EB [epidermolysis bullosa] can be mild with generalized blistering, typically the recessive forms of EB tend to be more severe. Onset is usually at birth with areas of missing skin. Generalized blistering then scarring can occur on skin surfaces and mucous membranes. Scarring may limit range of motion of extremities. Fusion of fingers and toes and contractures cause deformity and loss of function. 1, record 1, English, - recessive%20dystrophic%20epidermolysis%20bullosa

L'EB [épidermolyse bulleuse] dystrophique est causée par des mutations dominantes ou récessives du gène COL7A1 qui code pour le collagène de type VII [...] Les mutations pathologiques conduisent à la production d'un collagène de type VII non fonctionnel ou à son absence. En conséquence, les fibrilles d'ancrage de la jonction dermo-épidermique ne sont pas assemblées correctement ou ne sont pas formées, ce qui réduit l'adhérence entre le derme et l'épiderme et provoque des plaies. Les patients atteints d'EBDR souffrent donc de ces plaies pendant toute leur vie [...] 2, record 1, French, - %C3%A9pidermolyse%20bulleuse%20dystrophique%20r%C3%A9cessive

Dissecting aneurysm ... is a lesion which occurs when blood is forced through an intimal defect into the wall of an artery, under arterial pressure. This may lead to extension of a column of blood that may travel for a considerable distance along the arterial media, and separate the wall into two planes -- hence, the word "dissection." (Actually, the term "dissecting aneurysm" is a misnomer, since there is not actually an arterial dilatation. A more accurate term is "dissecting hematoma."). ... There are two ways to classify dissecting aneurysms according to their location. The simpler of these systems designates a dissecting aneurysm as "type A" if it involves the ascending aorta and "type B" if it is confined to the descending aorta. 1, record 3, English, - dissecting%20hematoma

El término aneurisma también se usa para una gravísima enfermedad, el aneurisma disecante. En realidad no se trata de un verdadero aneurisma sino de un hematoma disecante producido por una rotura de la capa íntima y parte de la capa media de la arteria, generalmente la aorta. Tras la rotura, la sangre pasa de la luz arterial al interior de la pared y la presión sanguínea va despegando y disecando las paredes. La arteria está dilatada en una zona pero la pared de dicha zona no contiene las tres capas de un verdadero aneurisma. La disección aórtica se produce por una enfermedad del colágeno que debilita la capa media y, con frecuencia, se asocia al Síndrome de Marfan(759. 82). 1, record 3, Spanish, - hematoma%20disecante
