Remission of Antiepiligrin (Laminin-5) Cicatricial Pemphigoid After Excision of Gastric Carcinoma

Abstract

The present case differed from past cases by lacking inferior conjunctival sac shortening and by showing erosive lesions solely at the mucocutaneous junctions. The ocular involvement in this case correlated very well with the severity of gastric carcinoma.
