Pemphigus: Pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus
1990The term pemphigus stems from the Greek pemphix (blister) [1] and describes a group of chronic blistering skin diseases in which autoantibodies are directed against the cell surface of keratinocytes, resulting in the loss of cohesion between epidermal cells, through a process called acantholysis. Pemphigus is divided into pemphigus vulgaris (PV) with a

Dermatologica, 2009Symptomatic involvement of the oesophageal mucosa by pemphigus vulgaris is rare. We describe 1 patient who was treated with oral steroids during a blistering phase, when epigastric pain developed. Endoscopy revealed multiple ulcerations all over the oesophagus, but gastroduodenal mucosa was normal.

The view that there are no prodromal signs in pemphigus vulgaris and that it affects persons who are otherwise healthy is not entirely confirmed by the results of a survey of 106 cases. In more than half the patients, pathologic states were observed for varying periods (usually two to three months) prior to appearance of the initial pemphigus lesions ...

ABSTRACTA male newborn with skin erosions was born to a 32‐year‐old woman who was under treatment for pemphigus vulgaris that had been diagnosed 16 months earlier. Antibodies to desmoglein (Dsg)1 and Dsg3 were analyzed by enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay. Index values of antibodies to Dsg1 and Dsg3 were 49 (normal index values, <14) and 121 (normal
