Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (also known as "Hallopeau–Siemens variant of epidermolysis bullosa"[1] and "Hallopeau–Siemens disease"[2]) is a skin condition resulting from mutations in the gene encoding type VII collagen, COL7A1, characterized by debilitating oral lesions that produce pain, scarring, and microstomia.[1]:601[3]:558-9
It is named for François Henri Hallopeau and Hermann Werner Siemens.
