Three Cases of Vesicular Pemphigoid
Abstract
-
We report herein three cases of vesicular pemphigoid that is a varient of bullous pemphigoid, occuring in 38-year old female, 51-year old male, and 35-year old female patients. They had recurrent and moderate to severe pruritic tense vesicles with symmetrical distribution chiefly on the head and neck areas. The histological findings showed subepidermal bullae which contained a few eosinophils and the direct irnmunofluorescent tests revealed linear deposition of IgG, IgM and C, on the basement mernbrane zone. Futhermore, all the patients showed a good response to dapsone.
