Еpidermolysis bullosa is one of the most severe hereditary dermatoses. Peculiarities and complexity of the pathology are associated not only with the physical discomfort of patients and the severity of the disease, which often causes disability, but also with the development of specific phenotypic manifestations leading to reduced quality of life and worsening of social and psychological adaptation. By now no ethiopathogenetic treatment methods to cure hereditary epidermolysis bullosa have been found. All available methods of treatment are symptomatic and are mainly aimed at patient care.
