Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) is a rare inherited skin disorder. The skin of people with DEB is more fragile than normal. Minor injury causes blisters or ulcers that may be slow to heal and often leave scars. DEB can be mild, but it can also be severe, affecting the mouth, oesophagus (gullet), eyes and nails in addition to the skin.

Les formes les plus sévères peuvent également conduire à la formation de plaies chroniques et à la fibrose des tissus mous qui contribuent de façon importante à la morbidité associée à la maladie.

OBS

DDEB is an autosomal dominant condition. One parent of an affected person will usually also have the condition.

OBS

There is usually generalized blistering noted at birth. Blistering may be generalized or appear only on the hands, feet, elbows or knees: this is usually due to mechanical trauma. Rarely does scarring cause immobility and deformity of the hands and feet. Small cysts or milia are seen at sites of scarring. There may be mild involvement of the mucous membranes, nails may be thick, dystrophic or destroyed.
