Skin fragility and blistering are the hallmarks of this disease. Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is a dreadful complication in the epidermolysis bullosa (EB) patients and common cause of death. The recent advances in distinct tumor microenvironment explain the aggressive nature of SCC in recessive Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (RDEB) patients and the use of collagen VII re-expression as a possible therapeutic measure. Regular follow-up is a must in preventing complications.Collagen VIIepidermolysis bullosa dystrophicasquamous cell carcinomaJournal ArticleIndiaDepartment of Pathology, Sree Balaji Medical College and Hospital, Bharath University, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India
