Wilms' tumor with transient dermolysis of the newborn: recurrence of skin lesions during chemotherapy.

Abstract

Transient bullous dermolysis of the newborn consists of congenital skin defects and a tendency for blistering of the skin and mucous membranes during the neonatal period. A case of transient bullous dermolysis of the newborn associated with Wilms' tumor is reported. Transient bullous dermolysis of the newborn does not represent an obstacle to administering appropriate chemotherapy when simple precautions are taken.
