ABSTRACT

In dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa the genetic defect of anchoring fibrils leads to cleavage beneath the basement membrane, with its consequent loss. We performed scanning electron microscopy of an inverted blister roof of a case of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, confirmed by immunomapping and gene sequencing. With a magnification of 2000 times a net attached to the blister roof could be easily identified. This net was composed of intertwined flat fibers. With higher magnifications, different fiber sizes could be observed, some thin fibers measuring around 80 nm and thicker ones measuring between 200 and 300 nm.


Na epidermólise bolhosa distrófica, o defeito genético das fibrilas ancorantes leva à clivagem abaixo da membrana basal, com sua consequente perda. Realizamos microscopia eletrônica de varredura do teto invertido de uma bolha de um caso de epidermólise bolhosa distrófica, cujo diagnóstico foi confirmado com imunomapeamento e com sequenciamento gênico. Com uma ampliação de 2.000 vezes, pôde ser facilmente identificada uma rede ligada ao teto da bolha. Essa rede era composta por fibras achatadas e entrelaçadas. Com grandes aumentos, fibras de diferentes tamanhos puderam ser observadas: algumas finas, medindo cerca de 80 nm, e outras mais largas, medindo entre 200 nm e 300 nm.
