Lichen planus pemphigoides: Entity or Association?

Abstract

The immunofluorescence studies in 12 cases of bullous lichen planus (LP) are reviewed. The clinical and immunological findings suggest that there are two different forms of bullous LP: firstly, LP vesiculosus which is an acute form of classical LP, and, secondly, LP pemphigoides which is merely the association of LP and bullous pemphigoid.
