ALTAVISTA, CA et al. Paciente afectado de psoriasis, quien desarrolla una enfermedad ampollar intercurrente: a propósito de un caso. Rev. argent. dermatol. [online]. 2021, vol.102, n.3, pp.9-16. ISSN 1851-300X.

The association and coexistence of plaque psoriasis and bullous pemphigoid is a rare clinical variant. It predominates in the male sex, after 60 years old.

In general, patients already have a history of psoriasis and then bullous disease is added, with an average interval of 20 years. Although the pathogenesis is not yet fully established, it identifies triggers such as PUVA, drugs, and infections. Therapeutic options consist of monotherapy or combination regimens of systemic corticosteroids and other immunosuppressants such as methotrexate, with favorable evolution in most cases.

We present the case of a 52-year-old male patient with 3-year history of vulgar psoriasis and recent appearance of bullous pemphigoid.

Keywords : Psoriasis; Bullous Penfigoid.
