Abstrakt: A recent report from the University of Bari in Italy discusses the rare genetic skin disease known as Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB). The report focuses specifically on the dystrophic form of EB (DEB) and its management during pregnancy. The researchers highlight the lack of evidence and guidance for DEB patients and clinicians regarding pregnancy and childbirth. The study provides an updated summary of existing evidence on obstetrical and anesthesiological management of DEB and includes a case study of a pregnant woman with DEB who had a favorable outcome. This information is crucial for counseling DEB patients who are planning to have children or are already pregnant. [Extracted from the article]
