Abstract
The second case of pemphigus associated with Hodgkin's disease is reported. Circulating pemphigus auto-antibodies were detected in this patient and cell-mediated (T cell) immunity was markedly depressed. It is postulated that this T-cell immunodepression predisposed the patient to the development of pemphigus.Entities:
