Abstract

We report a case of the rarely seen disease pemphigus foliaceus in a 32-year-old female patient with a past medical history of superficial red raised lesion over the body face associated with itching and burning sensation for the treatment which has taken previously and healed pigmentation. She did not respond to topical steroids, and the condition flared up when oral steroids were tapered. Immunofluorescence biopsy and antibody titers can help establish the diagnosis. We discuss the clinical features, pathophysiology, histology, disease course, and treatment of Pemphigus foliaceus.
