Author ProfileAbstract
Since pemphigus blisters are intraepidermal, scarring should induce at
most a post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. We describe a very atypical
and unusual course of pemphigus vulgaris with extensive keloid formation
despite high systemic steroids. This could be promoted by the severe
flare of the disease, the delay of scarring and the superinfection.12 Aug 2022Submitted to Clinical Case Reports 15 Aug 2022Submission Checks Completed
