Abstract
Chronic involvement of orogenital and conjunctival mucosa in the course of either genetically based (epidermolysis bullosa hereditaria) or auto-immunologically mediated (as for example pemphigus vulgaris, mucous membrane pemphigoid or epidermolysis bullosa acquisita) blistering diseases can cause significant morbidity. To provide accurate care, recognition of clinical, pathogenic and diagnostic features as well as awareness of recent advances in the development of new therapeutic modalities are mandatory and thus will be discussed in this review.Entities:
