Abstract

Pemphigus is a group of autoimmune bullous disorders with different types. Pemphigus foliaceous (PF) is a difficult-to-diagnosis disorder which shares clinical features with many dermatoses. We hereby, present an interesting case of PF which serves as a reminder for clinicians that pemphigus is not always a serious condition with rapid extension of lesions and it could have a very limited and benign form. © 2022 The Authors.
