Abstract

Systemic amyloidosis is a rare but recognized complication of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. We report the cases of two siblings with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa who died of complications associated with systemic amyloidosis (AA type). This is the first report of systemic amyloidosis in siblings with dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.
