The skin and the muscular skeletal tissues, despite their different embryological origin (from ectoderm the skin and from mesoderm the muscle), can be affected at the same time in some neuromuscular disorders (NMDs). In particular, skin involvement may manifest at any stage of certain NMD: some NMDs with onset during the pediatric age could present with a selective and mild skin involvement such as occurs in Bethlem myopathy or more extensively and devastatingly such as in the form of Epidermolysis Bullosa simplex associated to muscular dystrophy.

Abstract
The skin and the muscular skeletal tissues, despite their different embryological origin (from ectoderm the skin and from mesoderm the muscle), can be affected at the same time in some neuromuscular disorders (NMDs). In particular, skin involvement may manifest at any stage of certain NMD: some NMDs with onset during the pediatric age could present with a selective and mild skin involvement such as occurs in Bethlem myopathy or more extensively and devastatingly such as in the form of Epidermolysis Bullosa simplex associated to muscular dystrophy.File in questo prodotto:
