Multisystem Mucosal Morbidity in Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa Inversa
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa inversa (RDEB‐I) is a rare subtype of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (EB) characterized by intertriginous cutaneous involvement and frequent mucosal disease. Although mucosal involvement is recognized in RDEB‐I, its cumulative clinical burden remains poorly defined.
