Immunoglobulin A pemphigus associated with immunoglobulin A gammopathy and lung cancer.
Journal of Dermatology 2008 June
Immunoglobulin (Ig)A pemphigus is a rare disease marked by a vesiculopustular eruption characterized by intercellular IgA deposition in the epidermis. It has clinical and histopathological heterogeneity and encompasses two subgroups: subcorneal pustular dermatosis type and intraepidermal neutrophilic IgA dermatosis type. IgA pemphigus has been rarely associated with monoclonal IgA paraprotein, myeloma and B-cell lymphoma in the past. We report the first case, to our knowledge, of a 47-year-old male patient with a subcorneal pustular dermatosis type of IgA pemphigus associated with IgA gammopathy and lung cancer.
