ABSTRACT
Epydermolisis bullosa is part of a group of non-infectious and non-contagious inherited diseases which courses with different presentations from mild to severe forms. It is characterized by skin and mucosa affections due to a disturbance of the proteins of the epidermodermic joins which alter cohesion in both skin layers. As a consequence blisters and vesicles are formed after minimum traumas of frictions, with the variable incidence to other organs. Due to the scarce appearance of the disease it has been decided to present the case a four years old girl with the diagnosis of epydermolisis bullosa.
