description Vaccination has made a substantial contribution to global health improvement throughout history. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccinations have provided us with a ray of hope for combatting the ongoing pandemic and saving lives. However, following COVID-19 vaccination, a wide spectrum of cutaneous adverse effects have been observed. We report a case of dyshidrosiform bullous pemphigoid, a rare clinical variant of bullous pemphigoid, following COVID-19 vaccination in an elderly female patient. The biopsy revealed subepidermal splitting with positive direct and indirect immunofluorescence studies.
