Comparative scanning electron microscopy of bullous diseases.
[dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa]
The
purpose
of
this
study
is
to
compare
scanning
electron
microscopy
findings
of
the
blister
roof
in
three
distinct
bullous
diseases
:
one
intraepidermal
acantholytic
(
pemphigus
foliaceus
)
;
one
due
to
hemidesmosomal
dysfunction
(
bullous
pemphigoid
)
;
and
one
secondary
to
anchoring
fibril
dysfunction
-
type
VII
collagen
(
dystrophic
epidermolysis
bullosa
)
.
In
pemphigus
foliaceus
,
acantholytic
phenomena
were
readily
demonstrated
.
In
bullous
pemphigoid
,
the
epidermis
had
a
solid
aspect
.
In
dystrophic
epidermolysis
bullosa
a
net
was
seen
in
the
blister
roof
.
