title: Omiderm: a synthetic cover for exposed areas in epidermolysis bullosa.
abstract: Omiderm, a synthetic temporary skin substitute, was used for the treatment of skin defects in a newborn who suffered from epidermolysis bullosa. Omiderm served as a biological barrier, and its transparency allowed close observation of the wound healing process and early detection of local infections when they occurred.
