Abstract
BACKGROUND: Post-vaccination infantile bullous pemphigod is a rare presentation. CASE CHARACTERISTICS: A 2-month-old girl presented with widespread bullae, erosions, necrotic and targetoid lesions over body and mucosae after vaccination. Histology and direct immunofluorescence (DIF) were consistent with bullous pemphigoid. INTERVENTION: Clinical remission with oral steroids and no recurrence with subsequent vaccination. MESSAGE: Continuation of vaccination may not be contraindicated in infants where bullous pemphigoid onset occurs after vaccination.Entities:
