Brunsting-Perry cicatricial pemphigoid associated with bullous pemphigoid.
Brunsting-Perry cicatricial pemphigoid is a chronic recurrent vesiculobullous eruption that occurs predominantly on the head and neck. Because of the clinical, histologic, and immunologic similarity to cicatricial pemphigoid, it has been suggested that Brunsting-Perry cicatricial pemphigoid represents the cutaneous counterpart of cicatricial pemphigoid and should be included as a member of the pemphigoid spectrum of diseases. The concurrence of Brunsting-Perry cicatricial pemphigoid and bullous pemphigoid, as seen in the patient in this report, supports this viewpoint.
