“…[2345] Our patient had clinical presentation, histology and DIF findings mimicking BP which were present in the background of plaques of dermatophytosis. This phenomenon could be explained by the possible hypothesis of antigenic mimicry.…”

“…[1] Few cases of bullous tinea corporis have been described as well, but direct immunefluorescence (DIF) findings in those reports are not documented. [2345] One case of bullous tinea pedis with DIF positivity has been reported. [6] Few other infections such as orf and herpes can also rarely present with positive DIF findings.…”

Infectious diseases can clinically present as vesiculobullous disorders. Direct immunofluorescence (DIF) study of skin biopsy helps distinguish true autoimmune blistering disorders from other conditions. In many situations, even DIF findings in infections disorders imitate autoimmune process. Here, we describe a case of 29-year-old female with extensive dermatophytosis having presentation mimicking bullous pemphigoid both clinically and histopathologically including DIF findings.

“…For culture, Sabouraud dextrose agar with chloramphenicol and cyclohexi- 5 Trichophyton rubrum is isolated less frequently. [6][7][8] In the pathogenesis of superficial mycotic infections, cellmediated hypersensitivity towards fungal antigens plays an important role. Th2 cells produce interleukin-4 that causes an isotypic switch to IgG4 and IgE.…”
