  • LOC syndrome is a subtype of junctional epidermolysis bullosa with characteristics of an altered cry in the neonatal period and aberrant production of granulation tissue in particular affecting the upper airway tract, conjunctiva and periungual/subungual sites. Fewer than 50 cases have been reported to date, mostly in consanguineous families from the Punjabi region of Pakistan and India. The condition is present at birth. The condition is associated with mutations in the alpha-3 chain of laminin-332 (LAMA3). Follows an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. Prognosis is poor.
