Bullous eruption in a case of bullous pediculid.
We present a case of a bullous eruption appearing in a patient with pediculosis pubis. The eruption was apparently a reaction to the pediculi, possibly to their salivary secretions. To our knowledge, this is the first report of such a case. We have called this condition "bullous pediculid."
