AB  - An  8  year-old  girl  presented  with  a  two-day  history  of  blisters  on  her  face,  trunk,  and  extremities  (Figure  155-1).  She  complained  of  moderate  discomfort  from  the  blisters,  but  denied  itching,  burning,  fever,  and  recent  illness.  She  was  not  taking  any  medications.  Biopsy  demonstrated  subepidermal  vesicles  and  a  rich  neutrophilic  infiltrate  in  the  dermal  papillary  tips.  Direct  immunofluorescence  revealed  a  linear  deposition  of  IgA  along  the  basement  membrane  confirming  the  diagnosis  of  chronic  bullous  disease  of  childhood.The  patient  was  started  on  systemic  therapy  with  dapsone  and  her  lesions  quickly  resolved.
