title: [Pemphigus herpetiformis associated with neoplasm of the lung].
abstract: We report a case of a 57 year-old male who developed atypical bullous disease and in whom an underlying carcinoma of the bronchus was found. The cutaneous eruption fulfilled the clinical, histological and immunological features of pemphigus herpetiformis. Reports of pemphigus herpetiformis and internal malignancy are extremely rare.
