title: Bullous pemphigoid and glomerulonephritis. Report of four cases.
abstract: We report on four patients with bullous pemphigoid and other autoimmune diseases who had or developed glomerulonephritis. The relationship between these two immunologic disorders involving the basement membrane is discussed. Our data suggest a coincidental phenomenon in patients who successively or concurrently have multiple diseases of autoimmunity.
