Abstract:
Bullous pemphigoid may, very rarely, occur in infants, although it is usually a bullous disease of the elderly which is characterized by subepidermal bullae on erythematous and normal skin. We describe an infant with severe subepidermal blistering disorder with typical features for bullous pemphigoid.
