Abstract:
Cicatricial pemphigoid is a chronic blistering disease that predominantly affects the mucous membranes. It has a peak occurrence in the seventh decade. Pediatric cicatricial pemphigoid is a rare entity, with fewer than 20 cases reported. We report an 18-year-old man who was recently diagnosed with cicatricial pemphigoid after six years of diagnostic uncertainty.
