Blistering Skin and Blood Loss: A Rare Case of Epidermolysis Bullosa with Severe Anemia
Journal Title: International Journal of Current Science Research and Review - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 07
Abstract
This case report examines an infant presenting with Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) and severe anemia, highlighting the complexities of managing this condition. Despite receiving comprehensive care, EB significantly impacts patients’ quality of life due to chronic pain and psychosocial challenges. Effective management requires a multidisciplinary approach, with emphasis on wound care, pain management, and nutritional support. Targeted therapies, such as gene editing and protein replacement, offer promising avenues for improving outcomes in EB patients, emphasizing the importance of understanding underlying genetic mutations. Collaboration among healthcare professionals, researchers, and advocacy groups is essential for advancing EB management and enhancing patient care. This case underscores the urgent need for continued research efforts to address the unique challenges posed by EB and provide better support for affected individuals.
