    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Dermatology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Dermatitis herpetiformis is an autoimmune blistering skin disease associated with celiac disease.
    • Enteropathy is a common gastrointestinal manifestation of dermatitis herpetiformis.

    Observation:

    • A patient with dermatitis herpetiformis developed both intestinal lymphoma and bladder carcinoma.
    • This case, alongside three recent reports, suggests a potential link.

    Findings:

    • Intestinal lymphoma may be a complication of the enteropathy associated with dermatitis herpetiformis.
    • The co-occurrence of these conditions warrants further investigation.

    Implications:

    • Early detection and management of intestinal lymphoma in dermatitis herpetiformis patients are crucial.
