Epidermolysis bullosa and inherited blistering disorders — short-answer questions

A term neonate born after an uneventful pregnancy is noted at delivery to have large erosions over the shins, feet and occiput, with smaller flaccid blisters on the fingers where monitoring leads were taped. There is no family history of skin disease and the parents are non-consanguineous. The infant feeds poorly and has a hoarse cry. Over the first days of life new erosions appear wherever the skin is rubbed or handled.
