Anti-laminin 332 antibodies in graft-versus-host disease-associated bullous pemphigoid after allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation
We report a 48-year-old woman with bullous pemphigoid (BP) with antibodies against the B3 subunit of laminin 332 after the development of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). She was diagnosed with recurrent acute lymphoblastic leukemia at 40 years of age and underwent two rounds of allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantations (PBST). Two and a half years after the second PBST, multiple tense blisters appeared on her face, hands, and lower legs. The diagnosis of BP was based on hematoxylin eosin and immunofluorescence staining and immunoblotting analyses. A combination regimen of topical corticosteroids (clobetasol ...

Linear IgA bullous dermatosis associated with immunotherapy
We present the case of a 67-year-old woman with metastatic ovarian cancer receiving anti-PD1 and anti-CTLA4 with new onset pruritic tense bullae to the trunk, hands, elbows (in annular distribution) that occurred after immunotherapy. Skin biopsy showed subepidermal blister with abundant neutrophils on H&E histology, and linear IgA staining at the basement membrane on direct immunofluorescence consistent with the diagnosis of LABD. The condition did not improve on initial prednisone taper, but blisters rapidly resolved a few days after initiation of dapsone therapy. We favor that our patient's LABD is secondary to h...
