Dilated cardiomyopathy in dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa [PDF]
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.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 ...

Increased Genetic Instability in Exfoliated Oral Cells in Patients With Epidermolysis Bullosa
ABSTRACT Objective To analyze the nuclear abnormalities of cytotoxicity—karyorrhexis (KR), karyolysis (KL), and pyknosis (PN)—and genotoxicity—micronucleus (MN) in exfoliated cells from different sites of the oral mucosa in patients with Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) and a control group.

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.
