TL;DR: The molecular investigation of 15 patients belonging to 14 nuclear families from the city of Sfax in Southern Tunisia, with clinical features of RDEB-SG complicated by squamous cell carcinoma in 3 patients, identified two novel mutations, p.Val769LeufsX1 and p.Ala2297SerfsX91, which should provide a rapid molecular diagnosis tool for mutation screening in RdeB patients from Southern Tunisia and possibly from other Mediterranean populations sharing the same genetic background.

TL;DR: The combination of B-mode and elastographic findings helped us to keep cystic lesion in mind as a differential diagnosis of MTS, and the authors should be encouraged to examine skin tumours on the scalp in conjunction with elastography to make better clinical diagnoses.
