ABSTRACT

Appearance of bullous pemphigoid in patients with preexisting psoriasis vulgaris is a rare clinical entity. We present a 70 years old male patient with sudden onset erythrodermia, generalized edema and tense bullae formation in the setting of a 20 years history of psoriasis. Rapid clinical response was observed after systemic corticosteroid therapy was initated along with methotrexate therapy.
