Abstract
To the Editor: Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a group of genodermatoses defined by skin fragility. Recessive dystrophic EB (RDEB) and junctional EB are known to cause extracutaneous manifestations which include urinary tract and renal involvement.1,2 There are no reports regarding the frequency of hematuria in EB without accompanying urologic disease. During baseline assessments for determination of eligibility for clinical trials, urinalyses (UAs) were performed for patients of all EB subtypes. Here, we present a retrospective analysis of these cases.
