✦ Synopsis


Abstract: Bullous pemphigoid is an acquired immunobullous disorder affecting predominantly the elderly. It is very rare in children and exceptional in infants. Hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome is a rare primary immunodeficiency characterized by a triad of high serum levels of polyclonal immunoglobulin E with peripheral eosinophilia, recurrent staphylococcal infections of the skin and lungs, and pruritic dermatitis. Variable associated features include coarse facies, cold cutaneous abscesses, and osteopenia. This report describes, to the best of my knowledge, the first instance of childhood bullous pemphigoid associated with hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome in a 6‐month‐old boy.

Specific cutaneous lesions are a rare occurrence in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The concurrent association of blistering skin lesions similar to those in bullous pemphigoid (BP), even though a rare event, suggests that BP may be a paraneoplastic syndrome.

We report the onset of an unusual blistering eruption following a diagnosis of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL). The histology consistently showed eosinophilic spongiosis, but the diagnosis of bullous pemphigoid was only confirmed after 13 years by repeated immunofluorescence studies. The
