Bart's syndrome: a mechanobullous disease of the newborn. Report of five cases and review.
Bart's syndrome is one among the lesser known presentations of epidermolysis bullosa. It is characterized by congenital localized bullae of skin and mucous membranes sometimes associated with nail deformities, all of which disappear during the neonatal period. Early recognition allows for avoidance of inappropriate systemic or local therapy.
