Psoriasis and bullous pemphigoid represent two clinically well-characterized, chronic, inflammatory skin conditions. The concomitant occurrence of these two entities in a patient is rare.

Skin histopathology from a scaly plaque was consistent with the diagnosis of psoriasis and showed subepidermal blister with inflammatory infiltrate of eosinophils with some neutrophils.

Dyshidrosiform bullous pemphigoid (DBP) is a rare variant of bullous pemphigoid (BP) that mainly affects elderly patients and presents with tense bullae formation on the palms, soles, or both palms and soles. This case report describes an 87-year-old woman who was evaluated in the hospital for a month-long erythematous and pruritic rash on most of her body that eventually manifested into tense blisters on the palms.
