Pemphigus Vulgaris Possibly Associated with COVID-19 Infection

Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) represents damage to epidermal keratinocytes, resulting in acantholysis due to the production of autoantibodies against desmoglein-1 and desmoglein-3. Autoimmune blistering disorders such as pemphigus vulgaris or bullous pemphigoid that develop following coronavirus disease 2...

description Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) represents damage to epidermal keratinocytes, resulting in acantholysis due to the production of autoantibodies against desmoglein-1 and desmoglein-3. Autoimmune blistering disorders such as pemphigus vulgaris or bullous pemphigoid that develop following coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have been reported in several studies. Herein, we report a case of PV onset following COVID-19 infection in a 17-year-old female, demonstrating ­­the potential pathogenic capacity of SARS-CoV-2 to develop PV.
