Bullous dermolysis of the newborn is a dominant or recessive inherited subtype of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa characterized by the tendency to spontaneously stop blistering within the first months of life. Here we report two siblings with bullous dermolysis of the newborn who were born prematurely and have a novel recessive mutation, p.Pro2259Leu, in the triple helix domain of type VII collagen. We discuss the possible relationship between genotype and prematurity and clinical manifestations in these patients.

Bullous dermolysis of the newborn is a subtype of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa that typically resolves within the first two years of life. We present a case of autosomal dominant bullous dermolysis of the newborn and report a novel pathogenic mutation. This case highlights that collagen VII mutations may present clinically with a mild phenotype.

We report a 21-year-old man with recurrent bullous eruptions and severe itching on the lower legs and feet since 5 years of age. Dry, dirty brown, tile-like scales covered his lower legs with dystrophic toenails. Nodular prurigo-like lesions, scarring papules and milia remitted after the bullous eruptions.
