Pemphigus in an Indian mother and daughter.
An Indian mother and daughter who developed pemphigus within a few months of one another are reported. This is the first fully documented case of familial pemphigus in Indian patients, and the first occasion on which HLA typing has been performed. It is also the first fully documented example of familial pemphigus in the British literature.
