Brunsting–Perry cicatricial pemphigoid is a rare variant of mucous membrane pemphigoid involving the scalp and the neck without mucosal involvement. It is proposed by some authors that this be called a variant of epidermolysis bullosa acquisita .
Localized cicatricial pemphigoid (Brunsting–Perry cicatricial pemphigoid) Paraneoplastic pemphigus; Pemphigus erythematosus (Senear–Usher syndrome) Pemphigus foliaceus; Pemphigus herpetiformis (acantholytic herpetiform dermatitis, herpetiform pemphigus, mixed bullous disease, pemphigus controlled by sulfapyridine) Pemphigoid nodularis ...
Pemphigoid is a group of rare autoimmune blistering diseases of the skin and mucous membranes.As its name indicates, pemphigoid is similar in general appearance to pemphigus, [1] however unlike pemphigus, pemphigoid does not feature acantholysis, a loss of connections between skin cells.
This category reflects the organization of International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision. Generally, diseases outlined within the ICD-10 codes L10–L14 within Chapter XII: Diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue should be included in this category.

Intraorally, it resembles the more common diseases lichen planus and mucous membrane pemphigoid. [13] Definitive diagnosis requires examination of a skin or mucous membrane biopsy by a dermatopathologist or oral pathologist. The skin biopsy is taken from the edge of a blister, prepared for histopathology and examined with a microscope.
The bullae are formed by an immune reaction, initiated by the formation of IgG [citation needed] autoantibodies targeting dystonin, also called bullous pemphigoid antigen 1, [6] and/or type XVII collagen, also called bullous pemphigoid antigen 2, [7] which is a component of hemidesmosomes. A different form of dystonin is associated with ...
