title: Cicatricial pemphigoid-induced phimosis.
abstract: Cicatricial pemphigoid is an autoimmune bullous disease that has a predilection for mucous membranes and often results in scarring. We describe a case of cicatricial pemphigoid with severe involvement of the glans penis, which, despite systemic therapy, led to phimosis.
