Wound healing in epidermolysis bullosa

Wound healing in epidermolysis bullosa:

Abstract

Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a group of inherited diseases characterised by recurrent skin blistering due to impaired epidermal or dermo-epidermal adhesion. In some subtypes, damage to internal organs causes serious comorbidities, and an increased risk of early and aggressive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) characterizes recessive dystrophic EB (RDEB). It is likely that EB will only be cured by mutation-correction interventions, but until that goal becomes a reality we need to pool and extend knowledge about wound management and other strategies to improve quality of life for people with EB.
