          Abstract

          Pemphigus vegetans is a rare variant of pemphigus vulgaris, characterized by vegetating lesions primarily in the flexures. A 41‐year‐old male patient presented with pemphigus vegetans highly mimicking condylomata acuminata, which led to mistreatment. Careful analysis of clinical and laboratory findings enabled us to reach a correct diagnosis and successful treatment.

          Abstract

          Complete skin and mucosal examination should be performed on any patient complaining of suspicious warty lesions in the flexural area, and proper diagnostic methods are used for doubtful cases before performing any therapeutic intervention.

            Pemphigus vegetans. Neumann type and Hallopeau type.

            D Blose, Aabid Ahmed (1984)
            Two cases of pemphigus vegetans are presented, one of the Neumann type and one of the Hallopeau type. The differences between the two subsets are clinical presentation and course. Patients with the Hallopeau type often have a relatively benign disease, require lower doses of systemic corticosteroids, and usually have a prolonged remission. Patients with the Neumann type have a course similar to pemphigus vulgaris, need higher doses of systemic corticosteroids, and have relapses and remissions. The histologic findings in the vegetating lesions are similar in both types. The immunopathologic features of both types are indistinguishable and similar to pemphigus vulgaris. IgM staining of eosinophilic microabscesses was observed in one case.

              Diagnosis and treatment of pemphigus.

              Daisuke Tsuruta, Norito Ishii, Takashi Hashimoto (2012)
              Pemphigus is an autoimmune bullous disease, in which autoantibodies react with the cell-cell adhesion structures, desmosomes, causing blisters and erosions on the oral mucosa and skin. Pemphigus is divided into two major subtypes: pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus. Oral corticosteroids are the primary treatment modality for pemphigus, while other therapeutic options, such as steroid pulse therapy, immunosuppressants, intravenous immunoglobulins, plasmapheresis and anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody therapy, are occasionally employed. Immunosuppressants used to treat pemphigus include azathioprine, cyclophosphamide, cyclosporine, mycophenolate mofetil and mizoribine. In this review, we summarize the current concepts of immunotherapy for the treatment of pemphigus in the Japanese population.
