Resumen

DEL ROSARIO MARRERO, Odalis de la Caridad et al. Epidermolysis bullosa: butterfly skin. Apropos of a case. Rev.Med.Electrón. [online]. 2017, vol.39, n.3, pp.552-560. ISSN 1684-1824.

The epidermolysis bullosa includes a heterogeneous group of bullous skin and mucous diseases of congenital and hereditary origin. Diagnosing them is not difficult if the specialist has dermatologic experience, but their classification is complex and it is necessary to take into account the clinical, genetic and microscopic factors, and the laboratory assessment.  The treatment of this disease is also difficult and it is necessary to take certain measures to protect the patient, avoid the onset of lesions and the complications derived from them. The treatment of these lesions in a newborn is described. Prophylactic antibiotics were administered and bandages were put on the lesions. All the cares and recommendations to avoid rubbings and pressures on these lesions, and also the high temperatures, are described. To develop the current term, 18 materials (journals and pediatric books) were consulted. The reported case was the case of a newborn with epidermolysis bullosa attended in the University Hospital “Dr. Mario Muñoz Monroy” of Colon, Matanzas. It was demonstrated the low frequency and rarity of this pathology for the specialists of the theme.

Palabras clave : epidermolysis bullosa; newborn; injuries.
