We report a 13-year-old boy with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa who had dysphagia due to esophageal stenosis. A balloon dilation was successfully performed under flexible endoscopic and fluoroscopic control. The early and long-term follow-up was characterized by the disappearance of dysphagia, weight gain, and improvement of his skin lesions.

D016108 Epidermolysis Bullosa Dystrophica Form of epidermolysis bullosa characterized by atrophy of blistered areas, severe scarring, and nail changes. It is most often present at birth or in early infancy and occurs in both autosomal dominant and recessive forms. All forms of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa result from mutations in COLLAGEN TYPE VII, a major component fibrils of BASEMENT MEMBRANE and EPIDERMIS.
