EPIDERMOLYSIS BULLOSA
----------------------------------------------------------------------


An OB-GYN on staff here in Denver has asked for information regarding
pregnancy outcome and complications in patients with junctional or
dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.  I can find nothing on medline or an
AltaVista web search.  Any thoughts or experiences are appreciated.

The pregnancy complications of junctional epidermolysis bullosa
depends on the subtype. For the generalized atrophic benign subtype,
there appears to be no complications in the four cases that I am
aware of. The more severe subtypes usually don't reach the age where
they can reproduce. If you have further questions or if anyone has
questions about epidermolysis bullosa, please feel free to contact
me at the epidermolysis bullosa southwestern registry below or visit
