ABSTRACT

Background:

Case characteristics A male neonate born to a mother with oral pemphigus was noticed to have multiple lesions. Observation Multiple flaccid bullae were noticed on the face, scalp, trunk and extremities with clear fluid and few areas of erosions.

Outcome:

All lesions resolved at the end of one week with conservative management. Message Maternal pamphigus may rarely involve her newborn infant; it resolves on its own.
