Abstract
Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a heterogeneous group of genetic disorders characterized by the formation of blisters and/or at the sites of trauma. These heal with post-inflammatory hypopigmentation, scarring, or milia formation. We hereby present a child who presented with widespread hypopigmented atrophic areas, blistering at trauma-prone sites, and nail dystrophy. The significance of this particular case lies in the challenge of distinguishing between epidermolysis bullosa (EB) and bullous extragenital lichen sclerosus et atrophicus (LSA).
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
