title: Dyshidrosiform Pemphigus vulgaris: Report of an unusual case.
abstract: Dyshidrosiform Bullous pemphigoid is a well-known entity, but dyshidrosiform pemphigus vulgaris has rarely been described. Our patient, a 36-year-old female, with a known case of pemphigus vulgaris (PV) for the last 6 years, presented with a 3 month history of a dyshidrosiform eruption of the soles. On the basis of histopathological and direct immunofluorence (DIF) findings, the new eruption was diagnosed as PV. We report our case as dyshidrosiform pemphigus vulgaris.
