Case report: A rollercoaster journey of pemphigus vegetans.
Front Immunol
January 2025
Department of Rheumatology, Shanghai Skin Disease Hospital, Tongji University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China.
Pemphigus vegetans (P Veg), the rarest subtype of pemphigus, is characterized by vegetative plaques, primarily affecting intertriginous areas. The most common autoantibodies target desmoglein 3 (Dsg3). A 60-year-old female patient presented with well-demarcated red vegetative plaques on her feet, vulva, and thigh, accompanied by surrounding pustules.

Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a subtype of pemphigus and life-altering disorder that results in the formation of intraepithelial blisters in mucosa and skin. Though the etiology is not well understood, it is an autoimmune disorder resulting in acantholytic blisters due to auto-antibodies targeting proteins of keratinocyte adhesion. Rapid diagnosis and restoration of the epidermal layer is imperative for patients with PV as widespread epidermal damage can lead to high morbidity and mortality rates.

Castleman disease is a benign lymph node hyperplasia with two histological subtypes. In the case reported here, a young adult male presented with mucocutaneous lesions mimicking common dermatological conditions. Suspicion of an underlying systemic disease arose when the routine clinical care of the skin lesions failed to cure them.

: Ocular predominant mucous membrane pemphigoid (oMMP) is a severe subtype of autoimmune blistering disease (AIBD), which can result in scarring and vision loss. The diagnosis of oMMP is challenging as patients often have undetectable levels of circulating autoantibodies by conventional assays. Likewise, the principal autoantigen in oMMP has been an area of debate.
