title: [Pemphigoid in children].
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Bullous pemphigoid is rare during the childhood. The authors report the 51st case.
  
  
  METHODS
  Jeremie, a seven-month-old baby, had atypical bullous lesions. Histological examination, direct and indirect immunofluorescence were in favor of bullous pemphigoid.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Clinical and biological features of bullous pemphigoid are similar in the adult and in the infant. First treatment is represented by corticosteroids. Evolution is generally very good.
