The glass skin is a rare disease with no cure, and with little information about their treatment.
Epidermolysis bullosa (skin of glass) may appear in one of every 50,000 to 100,000 births, according to estimates made at the international level.
Epidermolysis bullosa is a group of genetic diseases of the skin, whose character is the formation of blisters at the slightest touch or without apparent friction.
Epidermolysis Bullosa Patients have skin as fragile as the wings of a butterfly. That is why children who suffer are known as butterfly children. As a family of diseases, have different degrees of involvement depending on the variety.
There are types in which the fragility of the skin is limited to specific areas and others where it affected the whole body.
The patients with epidermolysis are a genetic disease passed from parent to child. The different forms of epidermolysis patients depend on the type of inheritance.
