I report a 78-year-old female patient with multiple erosive and erythematous inflammatory lesions of the vulva of seven months duration. She was diagnosed as bullous pemphigoid based on the following findings: subepidermal blister in the histological examination, linear deposition of IgG and C3 at the basement membrane zone on direct immunofluorescence studies, and positive IgG deposition on the epidermal side of saline-split normal skin on the indirect immunofluorescence study.
We report a case of a patient with pyoderma gangrenosum associated with multisystemic manifestations. The patient showed liver dysfunction, respiratory failure, and aseptic meningeal reaction. Corticosteroid therapy was efficient in treating both the skin lesions and the other systemic disorders.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
