[Cutaneo-cerebral bullous syndrome in patients with type II diabetes mellitus].
This study deals with a case of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus complicated by a diffuse giant vesicular dermatosis in combination with an irreversible coma caused by encephalopathy with hypodense areas on the CT scan. The coma, unlike the known diabetic comas and unrelated to infectious, toxic and cerebrovascular noxae, was interpreted as due to bullous lesions of the brain comparable to the cutaneous vesicles.
