    Author: Ozek C, Gurler T, Alper M, Gorken C, Songur E.
    Journal: Ann Plast Surg; 1999 Sep; 43(3):318-20. PubMed ID: 10490188.
    Abstract:
    A child with epidermolysis bullosa and aplasia cutis congenita is presented. This is a very rare condition that represents an unusual manifestation of epidermolysis bullosa. Management of aplasia cutis congenita is controversial and may be conservative, surgical, or a combination of the two. In this patient, surgical treatment with split-thickness skin grafts failed, and conservative treatment using silver-sulfadiazine cream dressings was instituted.
