A female patient aged 68 has developed polycyclically shaped erythematous plaques with herpetiform vesicles, bullae, and crusts, intensively itching. Histologic analysis has revealed bullae with acantholytic cells and eosinophils. Eosinophils were present in the epidermis as well as in the derma. Both the direct and indirect immunofluorescence tests detected intercellular IgG. These findings have lead the authors to a conclusion that the present case was an atypical form of pemphigus, pemphigus herpetiformis. The disease regressed rather soon after treatment with moderate doses of corticosteroids.
