Description : Autosomal recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is a severe skin disorder beginning at birth and characterized by recurrent blistering at the level of the sublamina densa beneath the cutaneous basement membrane. This results in mutilating scarring and contractures of the hands, feet, and joints. Patients also developed strictures of the gastrointestinal tract from mucosal involvement, which can lead to poor nutrition. Affected individuals have an increased risk of developing aggressive squamous cell carcinoma (Christiano et al., 1996; Varki et al., 2007). Allelic disorders include autosomal dominant DEB (DDEB; 131750), in which the phenotype is less severe, and nonsyndromic congenital nail disorder-8 (NDNC8; 607523), which has been found to segregate as an autosomal dominant trait in heterozygous carriers in some families with recessive DEB.;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the collagen type VII, alpha-1 gene (COL7A1, 120120.0001);

Neoplasia : Squamous cell carcinoma;

Prefixed ID : #226600;
