Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) is a rare, hereditary mucocutaneous disorder that can involve renal insufficiency. If a vascular access for hemodialysis is unavailable, peritoneal dialysis can be utilized. This report describes an anesthetic management with ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane block (TAPB) in a patient with RDEB for peritoneal dialysis catheter replacement.
