Abstract
Kindler syndrome is a very rare disease caused by mutations resulting in defects in the extracellular matrix-actin link. It usually presents with acral blistering from birth in trauma-prone areas, pronounced photosensitivity that improves with age and the development of poikiloderma and cutaneous atrophy. Mucosal involvement and degeneration have been described with relative frequency.
