Abstract
Kindler syndrome is characterized by acral blister formation in infancy and childhood, poikiloderma and cutaneous atrophy. Undoubtedly, similarities of the clinical features exist between Kindler syndrome and Epidermolysis bullosa simplex with mottled pigmentation. In this article, we report 3 patients with Kindler syndrome. Until the Bullous component of Kindler syndrome is more completely understood, we believe that this disorder should continue to be classified as a separate disease.
