[Interdisciplinary care of newborns with epidermolysis bullosa and severe congenital ichthyoses]
Abstract
Severe genodermatoses such as hereditary blistering diseases or Mendelian disorders of cornification may present as neonatal emergencies requiring interdisciplinary care. In particular, epidermolysis bullosa hereditaria, the collodion baby phenotype and harlequin ichthyosis represent serious clinical challenges with neonatal onset. This review summarizes dermatologically relevant aspects regarding pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis and therapy of these illnesses.
