Surgical Management of Hand Deformity in Epidermolysis Bullosa: Initial Experience and Technique

Epidermolysis bullosa describes a rare group of genetic mucocutaneous disorders characterized by excessive epithelial fragility resulting in mechanically induced blistering and abnormal wound healing.(1,2) Its prevalence and incidence are 8.2 and 19.6 per 1,000,000 live births, respectively.(2) Gene...
