It's been ages since I've put out a #dermtwitter #tweetorial, so I thought what better way than to share a diagnosis that was the original motivator for me to become a dermatologist! A 🧵 on:
PEMPHIGUS VEGETANS!

PEMPHIGUS VEGETANS!

What is Pemphigus Vegetans? This is where breaking down the terms can be super helpful. It's the diagnosis we give when pemphigus has the morphology of vegetative plaques.

Some people think Vegetans occurs when Vulgaris goes untreated. Others think it's just a rare subtype of vulgaris.
Given the clinical findings, the path looks different with pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia (but still with a suprabasal split!).

Pemphigus vulgaris is where the patient's own antibodies target a Desmosomal protein, which leads to the keratinocytes coming apart.
I describe this to patients as a brick wall, where the mortar holding things together is getting dissolved.
Remember this?👇

This is contrast to the Pemphigoid group of diseases, that target the hemidesmosome. In other words, remember that:
pemphiguS = Superficial (in the epidermis) (1)
pemphigoiD = Deep (below epidermis) (2)
pemphigus = FLACCID blisters
pemphigoid = TENSE blisters

#Dermatology #tweetorial time! Let's spend some time on the autoimmune blistering diseases. There are many, so this will be a broad overview of the approach to a the bullous disease patient.

The first ? we usually ask: "What is the level of the split?" That helps to distinguish between the #pemphigus group of diseases where the desmosome is involved in the epidermis, and the #pemphigoid group where the hemi-desmosome is involved at the basement membrane zone.

This correlates with the exam! Higher up in the epidermis means a thinner walled blister that's more fragile. So these are usually flaccid bullae. Deeper down means tense bullae. Photo 1 is pemphigus - see how droopy the bulla is? Vs photo 2 of pemphigoid, which stands up.
