Abstract

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.
