Baseline demographic data, birth history, family history, skin manifestations at birth, medical history, current cutaneous manifestations and the evolution of the disease were assessed and recorded. Genetic variants were identified using targeted gene panel sequencing for 23 EB-related genes and a genetic\u2013phenotype analysis was performed.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Our study included 65 patients with EB. Among these 65 patients with EB, 38 had dystrophic EB (DEB, 58%), 12 had junctional EB (JEB, 18%), 12 had EB simplex (EBS, 18%) and 3 had Kindler EB (KEB, 5%). Dominant and recessive forms of dystrophic EB accounted for 17% (n = 11) and 42% (n = 27), respectively, of the 65 individuals with EB. We identified 75 genetic variants, 59% (n = 44) newly discovered and 41% (n = 31) previously reported. Compound heterozygous variants were more frequent (56%; 15\/27) than homozygous ones (44%; 12\/27) in individuals with recessive DEB. Patients with JEB harboured LAMB3 mutations more frequently, whereas patients with EBS harboured KRT5 and KRT14 missense heterozygous mutations. Patients with KEB had homozygous mutations in FERTM1.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Our study has unveiled several novel genetic variants and severe phenotypes associated with nonsense genetic variants.
