A REPORT OF TWO CASES OF SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMA OF THE HAND IN PATIENTS WITH EPIDERMOLYSIS BULLOSA DYSTROPHICA [PDF]
This is a report of two patients (brothers) with unusual generalized skin disorder, a recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) that appeared at childhood, who developed a progressive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in their right hands. Later both

Genetic Disorders of the Extracellular Matrix
ABSTRACT Mutations in the genes for extracellular matrix (ECM) components cause a wide range of genetic connective tissues disorders throughout the body. The elucidation of mutations and their correlation with pathology has been instrumental in understanding the roles of many ECM components. The pathological consequences of ECM protein mutations depend
