Unusual distribution of bullous pemphigoid lesions in a hemiplegic patient: a case report

ABSTRACT

Bullous pemphigoid [BP] is an autoimmune subepidermal blistering condition that predominantly affects older patients and characterized by local or generalized tense blister formation. Mucosal involvement with small blisters or erosions may exist in a minority of patients. BP is generally self-limiting with remission in most patients by 5 years. We report an 83-year-old hemiplegic lady with unusual distribution of bullous pemphigoid lesions
