ABSTRACT
Edema blisters is an acute bullous disease that occurs following acute lower leg edema in patients with heart, renal and liver disease. Most of the affected patients are elderly, immobile and have been hospitalized for a long time. These clinical situations are commonly observed, but this can be misdiagnosed as other bullous diseases, especially friction blisters and bullous pemphigoid. We herein report a case of acute edema blisters in a 74-year-old female who presented with a tense bullae based on an edematous lower leg.
