Grandir avec une EBH, un exemple de transition pédiatrie-service d’adultes dans le domaine des maladies rares.
Auteurs : Bourrat E1The transition from pediatrics to adult wards concerns all chronic diseases with a pediatric onset, but there are a number of specific features in the case of severe forms of hereditary epidermolysis bullosa: worsening wound surface and chronicity with age, appearance or increase in certain complications (carcinological, renal, nutritional, dental), sometimes difficult therapeutic choices, sometimes life-threatening prognosis. But one of the major problems limiting the patient's autonomy is the difficulty of finding a paramedic to take over skin care, often provided from birth by a parent who has become a caregiver through necessity.
