The term 'epidermolysis bullosa hereditaria' is applied to a heterogeneous group of mechanobullous diseases of which at least 19 different forms have been reported. Classification of these separate genetic entities into various subtypes is possible on clinical, genetic, biochemical and histopathological bases. Some forms are potentially lethal, while others are benign. Many of the subgroups are represented in South Africa, although little has been published locally on these conditions. On the basis of a wide-scale study in the RSA, the condition is reviewed in order to present current concepts and future developments of this rare but significant genodermatosis.
术语“遗传性大疱性表皮松解症”适用于一组异质性机械性大疱性疾病，其中已报道至少19种不同类型。基于临床、遗传、生化和组织病理学依据，可将这些不同的遗传实体分类为各种亚型。有些类型可能是致命的，而其他类型则是良性的。南非存在许多此类亚组病例，尽管当地关于这些病症的报道很少。基于在南非共和国开展的一项大规模研究，本文对该病进行综述，以呈现关于这种罕见但重要的遗传性皮肤病的当前概念和未来发展。
