Abstract
- Cicatricial pemphigoid is a chronic autoimmune subepithelial blistering disease that predominantly involves mucous membrane with resultant scar formation. It may involve oral, ocular, nasal, pharyngeal, laryngeal, esophageal, and anogenital mucous membranes. Cicatricial pemphigoid is a heterogenous group of diseases with respect to the autoimmune target antigens including BP180(type XVII collagen), BP230, laminin 5(epiligrin), laminin 6, type VII collagen and other newly described antigen. We describe a patient with cicatricial pemphigoid in whom circulating IgA and IgG autoantobodies against BP180 and BP230 antigens were detected simunltaneously.
