Subepidermal bullous autoimmune disease associated with immune nephritis. Immunomorphologic studies.
There are only a few reports of the association of immune-complex glomerulonephritis with bullous pemphigoid. The occurrence of immune-complex nephritis with linear IgA bullous disease has not been previously reported. We report two cases, one a case of bullous pemphigoid and the other a case of linear IgA bullous disease, both of which were associated with immune-complex glomerulonephritis. The clinical and immunomorphologic data are briefly discussed.
